With The way you do your riser is the left limb the bottom limb?
Do you do anything with the lams to make sure the bottom limb is the bottom limb after glueup?

Yep bottom limb is on the left.
No I don’t do anything to my lams for that. I never had any issue getting the right tiller so far (this is only the third bow)
