Latest hybrid- fresh outta lab... (draw added p1)

[MoeM]

Hey fellas, encouraged by the big interest in my recent short bow discussion I`m asking you again about the following bow I`m on at the moment.
It`s grown in length due to a longer, heavier riser but with it`s 58" unstrung still within the 60th.
String stays off the limb at 8 1/2" as it`s supposed to but I`m about to loose patience for a clean finish     :rolleyes:  
I`m looking forward for some kind words and friendly criticism to get the extra "patience-boost" I need to get the job at 100% done.  

(at the end I post a link to another board with more pics and for those who can`t see any in here)

       
     
     
     
     
 
Thanks in advance friends!

sweet looking bow, and with that high a brace it should be pretty easy to shoot:).

[halfseminole]

I really, really like that bow!  I shoot one with a giant brace height, and I find that shorter ones give so much string slap it cuts after a while.  Also, that's an excellent combo of woods.  What are they, btw?

[MoeM]

Thanks guys!
Yes Caleb, smooth to shoot while hitting hard^^
The woods are satinwood and shedua in the riser and bubinga (african -not south american- rosewood called too, I think).

Very nice, Moe.

[Trux Turning]

Nice! Have you got a full draw picture? That riser is wild looking.

[MoeM]

Not jet David- I`ll take one later, but the baby tries to eat my cam when I set it on timetrigger so she`ll have to go to bed first...
Kids...the earth`s salt   :D

[goobersan]

Stop showing off! That bow is wicked cool. Bowyers like you make want to give up and start knitting or something. Really nice design and craftsmanship. Well done Moe

[MoeM]

Sry Sire- it`s not finished at all (60/80 grit)  
But thank you guys!

[MoeM]

As the kids are sleeping- beer for me draw for you^^
   
   
   
And the    source page

Hope you enjoy!

note:
The beer btw. is *Augustiner Hell* for sure one of munichs (and maybe world`s) top 5 lager!

Very nice, slightly more thickness taper might bring the string off the limbs at a slightly lower brace height. Looks great though.

Man...that is sweet Moe! It's amazing how a frosty beverage enhances one's patience and creativity.  

[JamesV]

WOW.................Very neat design and workmanship. Bet that thing will fling an arrow.

[chackworth3]

Very nice bow!

[beachbowhunter]

I agree with Little Ben. More taper or a Power lam to move the bend away from the riser would get you a lower brace height. Love your design and creative work!

[Bowjunkie]

How much taper do you have in the limbs currently?

[MoeM]

I used a 2mm/m- same as 0,02"- but I`m thinking about 2" glass p-lam or 0,03" taper as well.

Btw. the riser design I came across last TG serverdowntime over an add- saw similar at "Brooks Bows"...
first it was planed like blacktailbows style^^

[Roy from Pa]

I guess it's Ok:)

[MoeM]

Damn Roy when YOU guess it is OK then I`m sure it IS^^

[bigbob2]

Moem that makes me want to try something similar . Just love the lines and the wood choices, very very nice, it floats my boat!
