I really like the DVR I made a out rigger for it so I could turn table tops like the rock maple one in the pic if I didnt make bows I would spend my time turning vesels !

Lonnie its actually 2 plys of electric blankets one of them has dual temp controls thats great for fine tunning temp the only down side its slow getting up to temp hence the optional clip on shop lights its a Hill billy/Red neck Hybrid 😃

Brad when you double them over they get pretty warm if you get a good air seal they will push 130 Deg if you boost it with 2 , 100 watt bulbs it will go 190 Deg it's not a plug and play system ,I check it every 1:30 HR and adjust as needed but works for those of us with limited space !

Pop it out and cleaned it up every thing looks great but I think Im going to be heavy from my SWAG but not much ,Im thinking maybe go 66" on this one !

Looks huge on the car!
That ABB riser looks nice

Those lams are full length that's 72" I left it that way in case I needed to go longer , I think what I neglected in my stack swag was that I'm using the super lam ,AKA (supper lamb)

that made the working limb shorter hence higher weight, I'm playing it by ear maybe start 68" and can always pike it well see I will play tomorrow in between coats on dry wall (Honey Do) !

Looks good so far.

Well they say God works in mysteries ways and he does thats why I always thank him for every bow I make good or bad ! But I have come 360 deg now this bow is exactly the bow I started the thread for the one Big Bob 2 was helping me with but here is the stats 68" ntn 53lb @31 its smooth as a babys butt to draw I really like the profile with the SL in the mix need to smooth out the tiller & get it shooting but very happy so far !

skeaterbait · « **Reply #334 on:** March 27, 2019, 06:38:29 PM »

Pretty slick. It looks like you could draw that out to about 36"-38" but you may have to whittle down a broom handle for arrows.

Forwardhandle · « **Reply #335 on:** March 27, 2019, 07:06:35 PM »

I'm just glad I left it long other wise I would of had 60lb plus bow !

Forwardhandle · « **Reply #336 on:** April 13, 2019, 12:03:05 PM »

Not much time for bow work lately but hope to get this one finished over the next couple weeks so I can move on to other style bows ,got the handle overlay glued on today , making the handle similar to the 64" D/R I did before !

Nice....

Forwardhandle · « **Reply #338 on:** May 01, 2019, 11:04:40 AM »

Got rained out on the job got a chance to work a bit on the 68" D/R got the sight window & the riser ruffed out got a chance to shoot about 40 arrows between rain drops shot 700 grain & 730 grain arrows to test it the bow shoots very, very smooth & acurate and is a quite bow , It has the same carbon feel of the others , I need to narrow up the limbs and finish carving the handle and mill up some over lays then I will clock it with the same 16 strand string as the others, currently have a 10 strand FF plus on the bow its wisper quite with that string on !
