Question for Bowyers on lam layup design?????
« on: June 27, 2009, 10:11:00 PM »
I want to try and use some veneers in a bow. I have in the past used a parallel in the core and two equal tapers on each side for a total of 3 lams. What I am thinking or wondering is.... if I use the same overall thickness, what change in bow performance or shooting characteristics would there be if I used the two tapers in the core and two thin parallel veneers on the outside for a total of 4 lams? Thanks Steve

If your total lam taper rate is the same, the difference should by close to nil.
