Buck for your thoughts....finished

[eman614]

i like it, and can't wait to see the progress

[Jake Fr]

i don't know a lot about them other than i realy like the short risers better than the longer one's and yea kenny i cant wait to see what you come up with i like all the bows i have seen of yours so far so im excited for you in this adventure

[StoneAK]

Looks good Kenny Go with it!

[kennym]

I just glued up a limb, other one  in a few hours. Almost built a long form and glued up both end to end,then sawed in center,but wasn't sure how that would work out and I had a short scrap of plywood to  use for the form anyways.

I have a feeling it is gonna be too stout,but my calcs say not.    We shall see,maybe tomorrow...

Guess since its a TD, I could make a riser about 36" long for it!  

[jess stuart]

Good luck on hitting your weight Kenny.  The first one is a guess at best.  I had a form once for gluing both limbs at one time, kinda like a one piece without the riser.  It worked well but went back to the shorter form anyway.

[Bodork]

I think it's gonna be another winner! Can't wait to see more progress.

But I don't, so I'll just say that I still LOVE that R/D one piece.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but if you add 2 limbs at 29" each, to a 16" riser, you get a 74" bow? Maybe that 10" limb pad jargon has something to do with it being 64"? Is it you subtract 5" for each limb pad?

Either way, I still think you need an apprentice, and that apprentice should be ME! muhahahaha jk. But I would take the internship if available        

That is a 14(edited) degree pad, but you have it anyways, the limbs and riser overlap to hopefully make a 64"!

Here she was bout an hour ago...

 

And now after shootin a bit with no rest(me or the bow shelf)  :D  ...

 


 

And the always needed fulldraw pic...    

 

[kennym]

Any ideas or thoughts appreciated!  

Weight came in at 49@28 first pull, should finish out around 43-45

Stack was .320, takes .360 on the one-pc 64" with the superlam(has powerlam and tipwedge builtin), I'll have to chrono it later and see what .040 less does!

Gotta build a 10 strand d-97 first.

[Bodork]

Looks good to me!

[KellyG]

Looks good I bet she is a sweet shooter.

[kennym]

Thanks fellas, see any changes I need to make?

[jess stuart]

Looks like a real fine bow Kenny.

[Trux Turning]

Looks like it is bending nicely- good wag on the stack, that's a good weight to shoot.

Boy, that tiller profile is beautiful.        Very nice work.  Promising design!

[Roy from Pa]

I guess it's ok, I dunno though:)

[kennym]

Thanks guys, gotta make a string and get the tip overlays on before I chrono it.

Roy, I'm gonna have to make a split tree bow,eh?  :D

[fish n chicks]

She looks great Kenny! And thanks for the info. Looking forward to the finished result. 45# bows are the best all around weight IMO.

I can send you my address....you know...for a "second opinion" type of thing...
