Hey Bob. I use a roll of 3in. shrink wrap.The stuff will put a good deal of pressure on your lams if you wrap it tight and many times. I then  use just enough c-clamps to hold the bow to the form to get the reflex I like in the limbs.

Spring clamps work great and they are useful for a thousand other things in the shop.  I have a bucket full and use about 1/inch.  Try to keep the rubber on the clamps.  The bare steel will make little dents that have to be sanded out.

Thanks guys, I am going to get a bunch of the spring clamps and some of that wrap.
 Pete, I am building the BBO so I can enter the primitive class at 100 Mile this year and to shoot at the North American Longbow Safari.    Bob

Try the Loonie stores for the shrink wrap....thats where I get mine.

Well Bob. I'm sure your BBO will put my bows to shame and I'm afraid that if you enter the primative class I will not be finishing as well as I did in the past. I don't mind as long as you let me shoot in your group. Barb is such a good score keeper. Teach your mutt to find my lost arrows and we will all have fun. BTW shrink wrap really works. You get even pressure and easy clean up. Its pretty messy to get on the wet glue but the results are worth it.

I just wrap plastic wrap around the bow before clamping it up. You can also put blue painters tape on the boo to keep glue off it.
