Is there a how too on I beam construction.
For glass or wood bows?
Would like to see a pictorial.
Me too!
I think BigJim has a youtube video on it. If I can find it I'll post a link.
pretty simple to do. Build your riser with accents then saw down the middle and add a 1/4" I beam of wood you choose, glue back together and shape the riser to fit your form.
yup as James says
cut the riser block in half from back to belly, glue a 1/8 - 1/2" thick piece of something in the middle. I've been using g10 as it makes me feel better about the strength with the riser design i use. Phenolic and hardwoods are common as well. I think if you look at Kenny's last two builds, you can get a pretty solid idea of it. He has been doing his risers as mostly pheno with thinner wood sections on the outside, they look pretty amazing and are probably super strong.
Thanks guys.
