That looks very nice. It compliments the other colors in the bow.

Thanks fellas. The good advice helped me finish it faster than I expected!

So if I make my lams using 220 paper will that be smooth enough to use tb2 or should I use the smooth on I have?

BenBow,

I've used TBIII on nearly every bow I've built with no problems.

Most I glue up with planed surfaces as mentioned if possible, or sanded.

I've glue multi-lam bows that were prepped with 36grit, and with 220grit and they've all held together without incident.

Thanks Ben. Are you doing straight bows or do they have some d/r in them? I'm designing a mild d/r 1 piece.
