Fiberglass static recurve.......

[SaMbO2]

Hello gang,

I am very interested in fiberglass static recurves but I need a few peaces of the puzzle filled in.

How do they bend the tips? during glue up? after glue up? just wanting a little information on this,       anything helps!      

Thanks for your time, God Bless.

During glue up

Do you have to steam the wood and fiberglass to make the bend or????

Thanks.

No steam, when making a fiberglass backed bow you use thin flexible  laminations of wood or bamboo and fiberglass. Look at some of the "build a longs"here on TG  and the DVDs from Binghams are a good start
