I have been sitting on these for a while never really knowing which way to go on them. Now I have some direction.

I need to figure out the riser but leaning towards spalted maple with an I beam of alternating bocote and spalted maple, or maybe curly maple.

Those are some good looking veneers. Going to be a looker no matter which way you go with it.

They are shipped Mark, outta my hands now.

Had a new one, I have some sassafrass, was gonna use for core cause it's light weight. Made lams, scarfed the ends, and CA won't stick it together. WTH , seems like really dry wood and is for sure kiln dried .

Crooked Stic · « **Reply #116 on:** January 27, 2021, 08:11:00 PM »

From a guy that does a lot of lam splices told me to use Elmers wood Max. suppose to hold the end grain. Kinda weird why the SG wont hold it tho.

Hehe got me a victim today

kennym · « **Reply #117 on:** January 27, 2021, 08:15:53 PM »

Yep it was a first and I’ve scarfed a lot of lams . I made some aboo late today and will scarf and glue In morn . Have one more glue session on riser and will glue bow Friday

Wife wants a hat rack in laundry room so it will be sassafras or black locust ...

4 point · « **Reply #118 on:** January 27, 2021, 08:55:50 PM »

Think I'll build a longbow out of one of these. My last longbow was kind of a dog, gonna change up a thing or two and try to improve it.

Mad Max · « **Reply #119 on:** January 27, 2021, 09:13:37 PM »
