I've made two bows offf of my form, which is made of plywood laminated together and had the hardest time getting the riser area to release from the form. I took the precaution of coating the form with poly and even used johnson wax on the surface that the bow goes against. I laid saran wrap on the first one and a double layer of saran wrap on the second one. Same issue where i ended up forcing it off with a rubber mallett. Anyways, the bow shot great but eventually it delaminated in the lower riser area. Granted it was in my hottish truck when I noticed it but I feel the rubber mallett treatment was the culprit. I picked up a piece of formica to use as a surface between the form and bow. I'm just going to lay it on there as i'm not sure contact cement will work on the waxy surface. Any thoughts?
