Have to hold off on my trade bow until my taper sled from Kenny gets here as my old one [ not from Kenny!] I just found has up to .005 variation from side to side! Been wondering why my weights have been a little erratic.

Everything is prepped and ready to do the final alignment, then pilot holes drilled, tooth picked and then glue her up.
