Roy, you probably mentioned it and I probably missed it,  but what is the width of your center and belly stock in the initial lay-up?

64" tip to tip, I'm shooting for around 35 pounds. At my age that is a comfortable weight for me to shoot.

Trimmed the limbs up almost down to the riser and put the horn tip overlays on. Can't cut out the rest of the bow till I glue the riser on.







Putting a thin lam of curly maple between the riser block and Osage belly.





In the hot box to cure the EA40.
