Re: Let's build a bow
Thanks every one. Elk man it's made from 2bys and waferboard with foam board insulation and some heat lights.
Like with all projects there has been some trial and error. In this case I glued one of the fiberglass pieces smooth side down. Simple enough to fix it pulled right apart. Luckily in my dads stash of bow building supplies he has some extra glass. Also on my next project when I glue the lambs I will be putting a flat 1by on stop to keep the bow flat. The dark side of the bow has a small crown I'm assuming some glue didn't escape when being compressed. I will still be finishing this bow and hopefully it turns put usable still only time will tell intel then here are some more pictures
Thanks Trell
