Static Recurve
« on: October 31, 2016, 03:28:00 PM »
*************NOT FOR SALE*******************

62" NTN  25#@32"
Hard rock maple lam's and riser
   

It's 3/4" wide at the grip
   

The tip wedge is laminated sitka spruce .200 thick
   

   

Tips are 1/2" wide at the bridge and 5/16" at the nock
   


   

I used a 1/4" dowel for the arrow rest
   

I blacked out everything with acrylic paint

   
I would rather fail at something above my means, than to succeed at something  beneath my means

Nice looking bow but you won't be able to use that logo or name.  If you are selling these.

I really like the static tips. Did you follow a build-along/tutotial to learn the process, or did you make it up yourself? If it's a build-along could you share the link and if it's your own process would you consider making one? I really like them but it's hard to see what you did with everything blacked out.

It's my own design and they are hard to make.
I need to do some testing on it first.

How long have you been making Fiberglass bows?

I haven't even started, just wanted to know for future reference.
 But if it's a pain to make a build along, or if it's something you'd rather keep to yourself I understand
