1/8" from each edge may be more than than you want to start with. Ive reduced wt. on at least 1/2 doz. glass bows and my est.is that 1/16" on each side should reduce 5-7lbs. I got so I did not even mark lines on the bow--just went at it w/ a sander--kind of instinctive like-- never had a prob. Marking a line as suggested is definitly the way to go, for sane, prudent men. Just go slow, remove wood alittle at a time as evenly as possible, pull bow 20 to 30 times check tiller, visually, of measure, than proceed. It is important to continually pull the bow to allow it to settle into itself. Just go slow, be attentive, and all will go well. Its not really as big a deal as you might think.
