Title: 61# ALB, boo-maple-ipé (coconut) no.39 -- Interested in a buildalong?--
Post by: dutchwarbow on September 01, 2009, 05:35:00 PM
finished this one today. Most succesfull trilam so far, as It's the first wich didn't have issues, and the second one actually finished.

glued up with almost 2 1/2" of reflex. nowholding 1".

I've been taking pictures ever since it came off the form, so if anybody is interested I'll get the buildalong online, wich is not too much work for me. It's a blank-to bow, don't have the preparation included. I might try a full buildalong in a few weeks.

stats are

american longbow style;

61#@28"
68" ntn
boo-backed ipé, with coconut handle
wengé-boo tipoverlays

hope you guys like it!
