Title: Thank you IdahoCurt
Post by: mooseman1967 on March 31, 2014, 10:21:00 PM
Wanted to give a shout out to IdahoCurt for the Myrtle veneers that I won in the giveaway a while back. Cory didn't even have to help me as much this time but was there when I needed it. So thank you Cory (Heartlandbowyer) and IdahoCurt. Here is a couple pic. Dave

Very nicely done! Great wood choices.

How do you cut your limb pads for face mounted limbs like that? I use a table saw and jig but can't visualize doing it for face mounting.

beachbowhunter, Cory has a jig we used on the band saw. Adjust it to pad angle you want and run it and riser block along fence.
jsweka, She shoots good. I think Cory has his design figured out. It's quiet and fast shooting 10gpp at 186 fps. Dave
