Question for you bowyers that build Wood Laminate bows. Is it better to round off the edges more so on the back or belly.? And why..?
I slightly round over the corners a wee-bit.
I round them all over equally,but if I was to be more concerned about one side than the other, it would be the back, as the rounding helps prevent splinters lifting on the edges when under tension.
Thanks fugi.. I have been at this long enough to know I posted this topic before, but I forgot more than I know. :knothead:
I have a Good memory its just short....... :biglaugh:

I think Wayne is right get, back is probably more important, but rounding the edges of the belly well really helps prevent fretting on the corners.
I round all the cornes off really well nowadays. I also think it looks better.
