Check your collar

This is what may happen if you don't check your stop collar on your pattern bit.I bought a new bit and didn't think to check the set screw.

Thanks for the tip mike.it was going to be a pretty thick chunk of bondo so I just made a new template because it damaged it also and slid the new template down 3/4".I just posted this in the hopes that it would keep somone else from having whe same issue.

Seems everything that can go wrong does, especially when building forms.  I hate building forms more than any other part of bow making.  The second looks like it will be a good shooter, nice looking work area you got there Scott.
