Title: Red elm for backing?
Post by: takefive on May 30, 2013, 03:23:00 AM
I have a straight grained red elm board that I'm thinking of ripping for backing for a tri-lam longbow. It has a 3/16" knot and a small pin knot that would be in the center of the handle. Think that would be okay or is it a bad idea?
