I have just finished a recurve with Gordons new clear glass.  It is perfect in every aspect.  I have never had glass that was letter perfect before.  Don't have finish on yet, then we will see for sure.

Roy, I put in the oven at 6:30pm. I unplugged the timer this morning and checked air pressure in the hose(59psi)..I had other things to do today so I set form on my bench,deflated fire hose and walked away..I will grind limbs to shape later today.I should pull the tape off Saturday or Sunday.. The glass looked good before glue up so I think it will look good under the tape. I plan on gluing up some 42# ILF short limbs next using highly figured "Ash burl" veneer for Helens Olympic bow.

The question hanging over my head is;  "if I order clear glass how do I know if its going to be new and improved or old streaky stock"?

Monterey,
Mike at Rosewood took all the streaky glass out of inventory all he is selling is the new stuff in .040.(that's what I BUY) Just give him a call and ask, he is always very helpful.

Most suppliers (Rosewood. Binghams ect) will replace your glass if it is streaked.

Is Rosewood a sponser? I do not have a contact number for them and have never heard of them until now.

Thanks and God bless, Steve
