Another 25 hours and it will be a bow, if lightning doesn't strike.

The last one I made for fujimo, which was 66" tip to tip @ 50# at 31.5 inch draw was 175 through his chrono.

Thanks Mr. McKenzie.

Nice riser...

It's okay I guess

I used stretch wrap to put together a longbow. Plenty tight and the glue joints look good. Just a slight crown towards the limb tips but I think it'll be okay. Something I wanted to test - definitely not swap worthy, especially seeing the works of art so far

You are brave!

Those tri lams are sleek

Looks labor intensive, you must really enjoy the crafting.
Might have to try making one, someday

Holy Cow! All those look great!

Am I way behind? These aren't due for a month or two... correct?

I feel like I slept through class and now am behind on my homework. Next thing ya know I will start having those "at school in just my underwear" dreams again.

OkKeith

Roy, your making me want to try my hand at tri lam's. I'm liking that bow!

Kenny, is there an I beam in that riser?

goobersan · « **Reply #434 on:** February 14, 2019, 10:22:55 PM »

Yes there is Travis. I'll let you borrow it this summer

Kenny's probably going a completely different direction anyway, that's a bait picture. Although with that I beam it could be headed towards a takedown.

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #436 on:** February 15, 2019, 05:13:07 AM »

You have 3 months to get your bow shipped, the shipping deadline is Friday, May 31st.

If you guys can make glass bows, then a trilam would be easy.

Well easy to layout, but it's the tillering that takes all the time with an all wood bow.

Tillering and lightning storms, LOL.

Buemaker · « **Reply #437 on:** February 15, 2019, 05:30:06 AM »

Kenny that would make a nice riser, is it Bubinga?

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #438 on:** February 15, 2019, 05:54:02 AM »

Yup, Kenny is Bubinga allright...

kennym · « **Reply #439 on:** February 15, 2019, 08:34:06 AM »

Yep it has an Ibeam, and yep it's bubinga, and yep it may be going somewhere else. Still haven't decided what to do for the swap bow but I have a sorta idear .

Do we get a time extension if it blows up?

And elroy, I may be bubinga but you're walNUTS !
