Last three were my pick! Very nice work! Looks like alot of work too! I read the build along by someone on here that did a riser like that.

Lookin great Guys!

David ,is that lacewood? I bought some lacewood,but it seems really lightweight,about like mahogany. Wasn't sure if it would work for risers or not. Thanks,Kenny

Hey Kenny,

I used some lacewood as a riser in a 66"longbow, pic below,..it worked great. It has fairly open grain which I think really helps soak in the epoxy..I like it...and it worked just fine as a riser in this bow. Best of luck!

Thats like the first pc of lacewood I bought! Check out the lacewood I got last time at bottom of this page on left,makes you wonder if they are even the same species!

I've cut some lams from this last pc,it is HARD!!

Kenny- I think that what you have there is leopard wood. nearly the same wood but leopard has a larger figure to it.

The lacewood I have used feels very heavy, almost like phenolic!
