As much as I would love to just call up Binghams or 3rivers and order the tapers and lams I'm a bit strapped for cash, so its gonna be some time until I get everything.

Unless you guys have some stuff you're willing to sell cheap to help the cause!

I think a traditional stack as if it were .040 glass for 40# and 66ntn is a good place to start.  I'll start shopping around for stuff now.

I would donate some tapers and a riserblock for little money- but shipping makes it a bit difficult...
(But I can wait and maybe there are others closer around you^^)

Hey if it comes out way too heavy, I like about 45# at 25" .... that be over 50# @ 28" ... so you can always just send it out east to virginia and I will take good care of it ... You can even send it as a blank I will cut the shelf and shape the riser and everything! haha

Thanx MoeM, I will keep that in mind, lol!

LittleBen - lol!  I'm sure there will be a few people who claim to know how to properly dispose of such thing, lol!

Well I got ahold of Sixby (Steve) and he has given me so much great advice and numbers to work with!  I now have a recipe to start piecing things together.

I will update things as I get close!

In the mean time, I would like to continue this discussion with other thoughts and ideas.

Cheers!
