Thanks cardboard duck!
Do I just need to resize them to 640x480 to get them to attach correctly?

Couple more risers!

I like it, the green wood (Actionwood/Futurewood?) is pretty slick....getting ready to try some takedowns myself...all 1pc bows up to this point...Santa is supposed to bring me a bottom tap, drilling jig and form stuff from Bingham's. Any tips that I need to be aware of on this new direction?

I think Your helper needs a shorter bow.

I like the design. Looks Good.

How long is the riser?

A couple tips make sure your pilot holes are deep enough the first time, its really hard to re-drill after you run the tap in.  :mad:  
Also dont get in a hurry and use cheep epoxy if you're gonna do a laminated riser or your 3 piece take-down becomes a 2 piece break-down. It doesn't feel good when the top limb drops the hammer on your forhead. I promise!!!  :knothead:

14.5 Inches on the riser for my 62"
Im gonna try for a 60" bow with a 12.5" riser next, I am getting decent numbers with my limb design so I want to keep that length and change the riser for an OA length of 60"
