Can someone please describe for me how or what method you use to hold yout limb lams in place on the form prior to clamping or inflating the air hose.

how many of these are u running per limb cs?

After glueing all lams I wrap some clear kitchen foil around the limb tips and riser fades, then I use some enforced adhesive tape (1/2" wide) and wrap that firmly around the foil. Then, once placed onto the lower part of the form, I wrap the whole bow and lower form together. After that the pressure strip, the air hose and the upper part of the form is placed and clamped. Pressurise the air hose and put it all in the oven.
Workes fine for me.

Thanks V-Archer! I've used 5/8" washers with a hole drilled on one side and screwed to my form. It's easy to rotate them up to be even with the top of the lam stack. I've got plans to build glass bows for the grandkids and will be using 1" wide lams on a 1 1/2" wide form. I've been thinking of ways to keep the lams from slipping now I know I can wrap them like you are and they will be OK.
