Got the riser ready to glue on this week, was ready to do it yesterday and had to have my dog put down so it will go on next week.

Hate to hear that Dan, Renee's dog had to be put down last month. It sucks...
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Yes Sir...  Slowly get it up to about 110*...  I think it is all you really need...  Just enough to get them molecules to move around to cure properly...

Got a string and rest on it, just need to get it packaged up.


Great looking bow!
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Rainman,

Sorry for your loss.   Been there numerous times, it is one of the toughest things I have done.

Got it rough sanded...  Came in 2# over the weight expected...  I am happy with that since I fixed my sander (was not sanding accurate) and I tweaked my hyper lam to give me a stiffer tip area... I'll make my weight easily...  The last three inches are not moving at all...  She is 1/8" negative tiller, which you can probably see in the pics...  The pics are at a low brace height since I don't have the tip blocks on yet...
