Thats some eye candy for sure

Those joints are real tight, was that CNC'd?

Crooked Stic · « **Reply #1506 on:** May 29, 2021, 01:06:16 PM »

What type of phenolic is that. Cant see any of the fibers thru the finish

kennym · « **Reply #1507 on:** May 29, 2021, 01:55:17 PM »

Flem, if talkin about the bow, no CNC, just eyeballed it here and I think he finished by hand, said his shop wasn't heated so had to wait for spring. He did a fine job I think !

Mike, it is linen , you can see some lines in the sight window...

Nice looking crotch ya grabbed there Brad..

Nice arrows Mike.

Geesh I aint grabbin nothing round here.

I finished the two piece today with leather grip and all. I really dont like doing leather grips. This one turned out pretty decent tho. The secret is about four coats of contact cement. Let them dry. then another coat on the bow and the leather and when that gets tacky apply to bow. Works pretty good on pliable leather.

Nicely fitted.
