For the topless form users:  Do you air your hose up at all before tying it down?  I have been tying mine down while it's completely deflated but it looks... wrong.  Ends up curving over the edges of the bow.

I try never to go topless, nobody needs to see that. But as far as a bow form, even though I am not topless there either, I would think a bit of air would be the thing to do.
Skeater who?

The new taper jig paid off. I just pulled a decent bow out of the clamps.
I’m going to make another one and I’ll ship the best of them.

Made some progress this weekend. Trying not to get my hopes up too much. I had gotten a split in the handle, so I had to flatten it out to patch a piece in. It’s only about 56-57” overall length, so I was going for a bit of a bendy handle design. I’m not sure if the new handle will hold up for sure yet or not. I shot it about 15 times
Unbraced,braced,16”,and 26” draw pics.
