Mike,  sorry about your Mom.  I hope she passed in peace.

I like the way you have brought that bow to fruition.  I've been paying close attention to how it would go with that pad angle.   What do you think the angle is?

Pad angle with the reflexed butt wedge :dunno:

Curious because I have a box of risers that have a very similar angle.  When I saw yours I
 thought they might be usable.   Going to be following with interest.

Sorry for your loss Mike. That bow looks great. Looks a lot like that fancy camo Predator you was showing off a while back  :thumbsup:

Back to this one today. Fine tuning the wedge jigs. One I was able to use the form and router. The other one I got close and used the ole slatherup with smoothon trick after getting it close. It took two times but works great.

Had to shovel some snow around here today.
I decided with a .199 stack in order to get some veneer room I would use .030 belly glass and .040 front glass. But decided a front veneer on this set of limbs and bamboo stained same color for the belly.
