worked on a new Static Recurve form.
Are you still utilizing those narrow thick Sitka tips? [/b]
No
I'am going back to the original design and starting over.
1 piece bow, small handle (riser) more like a selfbow handle.
Going with less thickness taper and narrow limbs.
I would rather fail at something above my means, than to succeed at something  beneath my means

Looks good! Cool clamp setup

Yeah, they are quite handy for this riser part and riser overlay gluing.

At first I was doing this with regular clamps and had many problems with parts sliding around, now it is much more precise, faster and easier.

Cut and ground lams for 2 bows, laminated a riser, made 2 new jigs for risers,  profiled a riser, glued up a set of limbs, and spliced lams for a one piece.
Wheewwwww!!!! Long day !

Revamped my 54" form a little. Took a little deflex out and softened the  transition between the limb contours.
