Finally healthy enough to get back out to the shop and have fun. Picked up some new stronger steel and started over. I'm trying it before putting on the adjustable limb pads to be sure it would stay straight. But its at 52 lbs now which is right where i wanted so now I'll have to think about whether or not I want to put the adjustable pads on because it will raise the draw weight. Anyway it spits out arrows so I'll play with it some more tomorrow and I think I need to make a little longer string for it too.
