Finaly got a chance to get the wife to take some full draw pics both bows are at 1/8 positive tiller and seems like both are perfect limb timing at my draw  both are great shooters but I never made a glass 68" bow before but see more in the future its such a docile & forgiving bow I didnt think I would stand hunt with it but definetly going there this up coming season , I know I have said this before but you guys that are thinking about starting building bows the Kenny D/R is a great place to start easy to make and a great shooter !

I got the final top coat on these bows this stuff is a bullet proof replenishable ceramic wax Im using it on all my hunting bows you can spray water on it and it just beads up and runs off & if you dont buff it,it stays matt Im getting a 2019 KW semi delivered this week and its getting a coat of this stuff before it hits the road I would highly recomend to guys that hunt !

Got it from the big A but it's in most auto parts stores $20 kinda pricy but a little goes a long way that ceramic is tuff as nails wax finish ! I'm not sure if it would make a good form release wax with the ceramic in it !

This is good form/mold release wax. Good to 275deg. Works good on Bows also.

Thanks Flem got it on my wish list for later the other thing I like about this ceramic wax is it doesent smell when I used to use furniture wax I had to put it on at least a month before season to lose the cent !

I got the 64" FHLB retillered down to a more comfterble 54lb & finished it with 4 coats vinyl sealer & 5 coats pre-cat lacquer I did the tiller neutral on this bow because it was shooting perfect with out positive tiller with the carbon in the limbs I only have to brace 1/4" more on the brace then the 60" the 64" is a sweet shooting bow very stable !

I don’t even know that we can still call them kennym bows. I think you’ve done more testing than he has. May have to start calling them Ritchie P bows.

I think you are moving in the right direction. The new on I been working on has 13.5 riser. I am not sure of the ratio of deflex to reflex but high on the reflex with a .004 taper.They look weird at full draw but work well. And are smooth out to 32 and thinking be fine at 33.

Ambitious no obsessive maybe ,I guess I could call em KM/RP Hybrid ...lol Mike I figured I will work my way down I wanted to do a 12" riser but not much space for a sight window, eventually I'm try to get to 56" stack free at 31" !
