Brass bushings glued in.

I am certainly glad I am not making my living by making take down recurves. It would be a meagerly hourly pay, but it is interesting though.

Bue thats pretty neat. I have only seen one other bow with bushings for the line up pins.

And a possible core, walnut and maple awood glued up with tapers of .004 “ PI tapers . In theory the thick end of maple at bow center for stiffness and the walnut reversed for light tips ...

Wow! That looks like modern art Kennym. I wish I could picture what those combos would look like, but my mind is blown out

Too many decisions, think I'll take the day off from thinking and get some work done...

I'd like to see the 2 in the middle put together

kennym · « **Reply #449 on:** February 15, 2019, 11:20:31 AM »

Kenny you put more work in your cores than most put into the whole bow

That's funny, I was just thinking it looked like it was taken right out of the 60's/70's

Looks like everyone is making great progress! They are all looking good. I made some great progress myself this week....I ordered my supplies.

Hopefully progress pictures to come next week.

Kenny, I like the mostly maple limbs with mostly walnut riser. But I don't have a dog in this hunt.

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #454 on:** February 15, 2019, 02:57:23 PM »

I guess they are ok..

Crooked Stic · « **Reply #455 on:** February 15, 2019, 03:32:52 PM »

Kenny I think you got them paired up right. Makin my head hurt with all that thick and thin talk.

That glued with smooth on? I am thinking walnut actionwood may be something for a light limb core.

Got word that my Cactus juice will be here tomorrow. Then I can post pics of the stabilizing setup. I will weigh a block before and after. I am thinking pert near double in weight with the maple.

Finally got a break from pushing snow around and was able to get my other piece of glass done.
Guess I'm going to have to glue this thing up next week. Now I just have to figure out a warm place to spray the sucker.
