Thanks guys, doesn`t seem to be difficult...
But I`ll need to fit it to dished boltheads for dished brass pressureplate inserts- but my neighbour is well equipped for all sorts of metalworks^^
Tony, I can`t wait to see your bow finished...

Finished tillering yesterday and checked the poundage today. Man did I miss my target weight!! 50 @ 28". I know what happened though, target weight was 30-35# @ 26", I came up with a stack of .235 for a 64" recurve. This bow is only 60". I believe the 4" shorter is were I didn't consider. No problem! I need another bow anyway. haven't shot it yet, but it turned out purty nice. Tony

Man that came out nice... Too bad on having to keep it- I'm sure you'll get some volunteers to take it off your hand.

I'd love to see a how to on the antler riser overlay. Are you cutting them thin and bending to fit or are you cutting them from the antler with the radius of the riser and sanding to fit? The bow is awesome BTW! Thanks.

I checked the draw weight again today on a more accurate scale, 46# @ 28". Would someone care to suggest a stack thickness for a 30-35#, 60" recurve, 15" riser? Thanks everyone!! Tony
