Title: Done in Time for Turkey!
Post by: Glunt on March 27, 2012, 01:33:00 AM
Built this to compare to one with all bamboo lams to see if they feel or perform any different.  Only problem is that when I did my final weight check before spraying, my helper read it at 27" so what I thought was 53# is really about 56#.  Still need to knock down the finish (gloss spar) but I'll probably drop the weight and respray after turkey season anyway.

62", 56# @ 28", chechen riser, red elm limbs under glass
