Glue the wood lightly together with tight bond.. just a drop or two.. make your cut.. glue together.. then lam grind and put in the fiber glass.

Do you make your own lams?

Yep

I cut the wood 1/8" thick on the band saw, then use my home made lam grinder to get them where I need em.  Also can do tapers.

Check out my post on the christmas 5 bow build.. it's probably on page 2 or 3 by now.

Like stated earlier, as long as you keep the same limb bed angle, shelf spot, and overall length of the riser you can do what you want with the rest of the riser.





Sorry for the fuzzy pics.

first recurve I made, and I like it a lot. Can't wait to start on the next one.

I WANT TO DO THIS SSSSSOOOOO BAD!!! Sorry I needed to vent. It's a slow process trying to find saws and sanders for the right price. As soon as I can find all the equipment I need I'm going to try out a Bingham kit. I can't wait, tell then I'll watch the bowyer's bench and just try and be a sponge.
