Thanks Mr. McKenzie.

Nice riser...

goobersan

It's okay I guess  :bigsmyl:

I used stretch wrap to put together a longbow. Plenty tight and the glue joints look good. Just a slight crown towards the limb tips but I think it'll be okay. Something I wanted to test - definitely not swap worthy, especially seeing the works of art so far  :clapper:

Those tri lams are sleek :notworthy:  Looks labor intensive, you must really enjoy the crafting.
Might have to try making one, someday ;)

Holy Cow! All those look great!

Am I way behind? These aren't due for a month or two... correct?

I feel like I slept through class and now am behind on my homework. Next thing ya know I will start having those "at school in just my underwear" dreams again.

Roy, your making me want to try my hand at tri lam's. I'm liking that bow!

Kenny, is there an I beam in that riser?

goobersan

Yes there is Travis. I'll let you borrow it this summer  :archer2:

Kenny's probably going a completely different direction anyway, that's a bait picture. Although with that I beam it could be headed towards a takedown.

Roy from Pa

You have 3 months to get your bow shipped, the shipping deadline is Friday, May 31st.

If you guys can make glass bows, then a trilam would be easy.

Well easy to layout, but it's the tillering that takes all the time with an all wood bow.

Tillering and lightning storms, LOL.

Kenny that would make a nice riser, is it Bubinga?

Roy from Pa

Yup, Kenny is Bubinga allright...

:laughing: :wavey:

kennym

Yep it has an Ibeam, and yep it's bubinga, and yep it may be going somewhere else. Still haven't decided what to do for the swap bow but I have a sorta idear .

Do we get a time extension if it blows up? :o :laughing:

And elroy, I may be bubinga but you're walNUTS !  :laughing:
Stay sharp, Kenny.
