Someone asked if the acetone was dry-In my opinion if you use acetone to clean your wood parts you are taking a big chance of contamination to start with.

I've never had a prob with walnut or aboo, but had some jatobe limbs that had the same marks under clear on both limbs, looked like cracks working in from edges. Just white marks, figured since they matched on both, it was the jatoba. Maybe just that pc but never put it in a limb again.
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Every time I think about trying to make a glass bow and I read these type threads. I just stick with all wood bows..  :)

Stuff happens and it sucks when it does but if your gonna build em your gonna break em. My only de-lamination happened before I built myself an oven. I had plenty of bows before that cure at room temp but that was the only one that failed. I made an atlatl out of the other limb that didn't de-laminate.

I typically just use a stiff brush to clean my lams and maybe blow them off with a little air if they are really dusty. I run my press with 70-75 psi and use plenty of smooth on, it's cheep compared to glass and lams.
