Looks sweet Mike.

But perfect???? Looks like the apex on that shelf is about 1/16” too far forward :laughing: :biglaugh: :laughing:

Is that color streak natural, or is that tinted?

I have already adjusted the Apex. The accents are all maple. The grip part took on more black dye maybe a softer maple than the main riser section.  :dunno:
Kenny good lookin bow there and you find a lot of stuff on BA that aint quite what it sez.

Heck, just make your bows narrower.

What's the big deal?

That is before the backer board. Those bags need to be about twice as thick. They get shot thru in no time. Shingles make good driveway material. If you get them cut up they are like asphalt after awhile.

weather finally cleared enough for me to lay up this second FHLB . larned a heap. Mostly needing to put stops each end of form, and extend my side washers high enough to cover all the layup at riser. Back glass on this one slipped to one side even with cable ties in place. Had to narrow it about .250''. Weight came in at bottom of my target of 40# to 45# , right on 40# and 60'' ntn. riser wood is Tasmanian Blackwood and belly veneer is Camphor Laurel, mainly because I could get a full one piece lam out of a board and one less thing to worry about . I differ to most as instead of having a thin veneer I often incorporate the " veneer" as a lam. this one I just went with 3 lams including " veneer'' With the lower poundage bows I  think the tip wedge is essential, this one is 10'' , just to keep the tips off the string and maintain a reasonable brace height. Also  incorporated  the   power lam after "mark one"  [ Invalid Attachment ]  [ Invalid Attachment ]  [ Invalid Attachment ]  destructed near the fade. They are such a great performing bow, I am sold on them Going to make another as soon as circumstances allow.
