Title: Lam thickness
Post by: mzombek on August 15, 2021, 06:11:10 PM

I am going to start a bow project soon. My question is how do you figure out the lam thickness? I purchases a form from one of sponsors on tradgang, and I am going to try my hand at making lams. I don't want to ask the vendor that I bought form from, I feel it's not the right thing to do. So, if anyone is willing share that would be great.
Thanks

If you bought a form , the seller should give you some stats . Wasn't me was it? :biglaugh:

Whatever you do err to the thin side for your first bow... Better off stuck with a 35# bow that you can possibly pike than a 85# bow that you can't draw... :tongue:
