I wonder if fruit flavored pop sickle sticks would be faster than nanner pop sickle sticks.  Seriously that is pretty cool, good job.

"A glass bow can be build from almost any wood with good grain."

I know straight grain is important for wooden bows, but why is it important for glass lam bows? the glass does most of the work....

And, how straight do you need the grain to be? Can you afford to have a few run outs?

You da' man.  Way to cool, I love experimenting going beyond the norm and debunking typical engineering.   Hopefully she stays in one piece.

That's amazing,  I would have liked to see that done with clear glass.

How thin can you make your laminations with your thickness "planer" instead of using a thickness "sander"?  I already own a planer.

Haha...that is too funny. And really cool. Is the glass clear or black...can you see the core? Are popsicle sticks made from maple or birch?
