Need some help finding phenolic
« on: June 21, 2013, 09:50:00 PM »
I have a friend that said he would build me a bow with a phenolic riser if I could find some. Where can I find some larger blocks for a solid riser? Needs to be at least 18" long by 1 1/2" wide and 2 1/2" thick. Is there any large companies that sell it or maybe an individual? Would like to have black but don't know if that matters.

For what it's worth, G10 is some pretty cool stuff, instead of a cotton/linen weave like phenolic, it's a glass weave in epoxy. It's commonly used in knife handles, I've used it on tips and overlays, it's virtually bomb proof and opens up new color options.

I found a few options so far. Will take them to my friend and see what he says. Looks like it may be a little pricy but have to pay to get something nice.
