1ST Time Bow Build. Used a Binghams T/d LB form but tweaked it as I went. Learned a lot and had a ton of fun. Finished just in time for the last week of the season. Came out at 59# @ 28". Can't wait to start on the second.

You have gone and done it now. You do realize there is no cure for what you have started? Enjoy!

Well done. That's quite a task tackling a take down on your first bow build.
Welcome to the addiction. You will never look at a piece of wood again withouth thinking how it would look in a riser or laminations.
