making a Fiberglass takedown sleeve

[Buck Buckley]

I want to make a fiberglass takedown sleeve, what kind of resin do you use, Has any body tried making any, any help would be appreciated, Thanks

I've never made one but you could probably use polyester or epoxy resin for a take down sleeve.

Check out Big Jim's website.  He has kits and is working on a how-to video.

Some of the video is already posted on my site. We have had a little trouble with parts and are currently working to get it posted.

thanks, bigjim

Just curious, sleeve for what?

[dino]

email todd smith at  www.toddsmithco.com  he might have the DVD by Jack Harrison that shows the whole process.  I've seen it before and it covers all of the steps very well.  Todd is a sponsor here and a pretty good all around feller.  dino

You might try on the bowyers forum also. Possibly some more responses over there.

I currently have some of the video posted on my site. it is under the bow building supplies and imbedded in the takedown kit.
click there and it will ask you if you would like to see the video. We will have the rest posted soon.
