Title: fiberglass sleeve td question
Post by: Hermon on January 01, 2015, 09:04:00 AM
On this type takedown (like Black Widow, Big Jim and others use) how small of a riser can this be used on?  For reference, could it be used safely on a riser as small as say 1 7/8" deep by 1 1/4" wide?

I have made a few of these and really like it, but hopefully, Big Jim will respond to this post.

I'm sure it could be used on most any riser if it is reinforced with a glass I beam.
The finished tennon size of mine varies slightly, but runs about .725 wide and 1.45 deep. I have done them smaller.

I don't know the absolute limitations as I have never had a failure.

thanks, bigjim
