Thanks Shredd. I have only shot a few arrows through it while tillering, and it has some nice qualities so far, but I still have to tiller to full draw. It's been raining here for 3 days straight, and unfinished wood bows and rain don't mix well.

Tiller looks real nice on this one Roy.

Nice job ol boy!!

Nice, I'm surprised they have such a nice shop at the old folks home.

I put the final touches on an ASL that I built for my cousin. It came out pretty good but I'm not sure about the bamboo under the clear glass (grass under gwass?) I thought it would be a little more dramatic. Oh well, thanksgiving dinner next week so that should catch up on the drama!

68" NTN, 40# @28" Black glass back, Maple cores, bamboo under Clear Bear Paw glass on the belly, osage riser.

Looks good Mike!! I built one with aboo under clear, I wasn't impressed with the look either but some guys like it...

Another nice one Mike

monterey · « **Reply #1310 on:** November 16, 2018, 02:01:49 PM »

Thanks guys, I did the boo for compression resistance but now I wish I'd put colored glass over it. My thoughts on compression resistance are probably erroneous anyway.

I'm going to put some ipe under there next time around.

Pretty nice Mike.

Sweet bow monterey.

Thanks guys.

I'm all done with big game hunting for this year. Kinda makes me jealous seeing all these hunting pictures.

Nice bows Roy and Monterey!

I am working on this trilam today, I think I am getting there. I have been looking and looking so much that I do not know what I am seeing. To me it looks like the left limb has a bit more bend at approx midlimb. What do you see?

Perhaps right limb should be bending a bit more two thirds out, I think I will call it a day.

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #1319 on:** November 18, 2018, 11:22:34 AM »

Not too bad, Bue but I think it needs to bend more right outside of the riser on top and bottom.

Then some in the outer 3rds of both limbs.

Seems a lot of the bend is just outside of those short lines I drew above it.

Do you have a gizmo?
