Ok here is the redo ,60 in  50 lb @28 ,57 lb @30 1/2
Minus .034  .271 40lb@30 1/2  and adding the carbon 5 to 7 lb so Im ether ending up 45 lb or 50 lb I hope ?? Any thoughts ? I will be using the carbon that goes on the back !

I am confused---you are taking out .034 and adding the carbon. How thick is it? What little carbon I used several years back I think added 15% on the same stack. But all carbon is not created equal.

No the .040 belly glass & the .048 carbon for the back is figured into the stack at .271 I just don't know how much it adds weight wise probably no more then 10 lb but all swag it's the same carbon backing brush wolf uses I'm just bringing the stack down to 40 lb figuring the carbon is adding 5 to 10'lb.

So if you go to 40 lb and Mike said what he used added 15% you will have 46# ?  Right where you wanna be! :thumbsup:
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Like I said all carbon is not created equal. I may have a couple of pieces of that carbon left over, I will check if you are interested.

Well forget the backing carbon I thought it was $52 for 2 peaces but that price is for 1 ,36 in. peace forget that Im using the .020 Gordons carbon I have here ! Im putting it in the .271 stack and taking it from there, I could build another bow for the price of that backing carbon !

I don’t get this English language. As I understand it handle can be a kind of fictive name on a forum, like mine is Buemaker. Now one guy uses the handle Forewardhandle, is this then both a bow handle and a forum handle and how can this be handled without being mishandled?  :knothead: Bue got the winter blues.

Im trying to lay out my riser for the 60 in. this morning but the dark lines on dark wood are playing havoc with my progresive lenses in my glasses, hard to see any lines  any body got any ideas for marking thin lines on dark wood , I guess I could cut out a replicate of the templet and glue it on or wait tell the art store opens ?
