I am building a takedown recurve and need some opinions on the lams. I want a .250 total stack but im running into trouble with the taper and parallel thicknesses so here are my options.
option 1:
.40" glass on back and belly
.110" taper (.002" taper)
.60" parallel
or
option 2:
.40" glass on back and belly
.100" taper (.002" taper)
.70" parallel
Which one of these options would work the best, this is a very gray area for me. Thanks.
Either will work just fine.
If the binghams plan,I'd go with 110 and 60 so the parallel can bend over the wedge a bit easier,but probably wouldn't matter.
I agree with Kenny, thinner will bend over the wedge easier. Less chance of a thick glue line.
