TTT for Tyler

thanks kenny

What snake skins are usually narrow enough for long bow limbs?

Razor,can we see your bow yet?      

Haven't had any time to work on it much. I just got my riser wood from Fedora(nuther story there,See Fedora riser block post.).
My limbs are rough shaped and that's about all I've managed to get done on this bow so far.
This is going to be a busy month. I have several military training days to do in prep for my deployment to the sand box this summer.

As I make some progress I'll post some pics. I'm looking forward to working on it a lot more that I've been able to.

This is a pic of one I made for the wife, it is 68", she is shooting around 35 at her draw lenght. I dont know how fast it is but it sure puts an arrow out there

The bow in the avatar is from a Bingham kit, 64".  If you use dacron string, it could be a tooth rattler at higher poundage but FF settles them right down. Good speed and a nice shooter. As long as you keep the limb bolts, shelf and throat of grip where Binghams has them, you can reshape the riser any way you want. The Actionwood is the easiest to work with for your first one.  Good luck if you try.

I just got my Bingham kit in the mail today!!!!!!

Jim,I'll check out your other post! Take care in the sandbox and THANK YOU!! My middle son is supposed to be home from there in a week or two!!

KC,is that bow upside down or wronghanded?    

Thanks all for the pics!

Brad,I'll get ahold of ya!!  

Fireman watch the video several times before you start the glue up, it'll save you some grief.

Good for you AND him Kenny! It is an honor to serve... your welcome.

I'm going to try to slip either this long bow or my take down recurve into a mobility bin and get some shooting in while I'm there.
