Just for the record
Badger:
David, using an ideal tillering method will be far superior to any formula. The formula is a bi-product of successfully tilered bows. A formula could at best be considered training wheels to simply closely monitoring the condition of the wood and adjusting as needed. Steve
Justin Snyder:
I think of it as a measuring stick. I can eyeball and tell you about what 1 1/4" is. But if I use a tape measure I can be more consistant. :-\ Justin
DCM:
Steve,
Sorry, I was speaking about the Supertiller spreadsheet thingy. Your mass formula thing makes lots of sense, and I have used it, not so much to make the bow but to qualify and assess a finished bow.
DanaM:
I down loaded the supertiller thingy also, one look and I deleted it ;D
Steve I have your excel program that I like its not complex and yields got info
especially for a beginner like me. Keep up the good work. Your writing a chapter for TBB 4 aren't you?
I sure hope so and look forward to it.
DanaM

Weighing a bow is pretty high tech alright.
