Tri-lam Warbow tiller help
Dag:
Hi everyone,
I've been sit on this stave for awhile and started scraping away a little today. Please give me some tips on where to go from here.
Upper limb is on the right.
fishfinder401:
looks nice, i think on both sides it needs a little more bending near the tips, what are the dimensions, weight and materials, it looks good so far though, cant wait to see the progress ;D
good luck

Thanks Fish. I was so excited to post earlier I forgot to give you all the specs on the stave. It is 76" long and 1 3/16" wide at the handle. Hickory belly/Ipe/Bamboo backing. Ideally, I would like to hit #130 at 32" but I'd be happy for anything over #90.
fishfinder401:
looks like a nice combo, it also looks like we have similar interests when it comes to bows ;D, im actually planing a hickory backed ipe longbow around 80 long and 130-150lbs at 32. that will start after the ash one im building, are you going to do self nocks or horn

Dag:
Nice! Yes I like this lamination combo quite a lot. It makes for a very fast bow. I'll probably do self nocks on this one. That Hickory/Ipe sounds awesome! Should loose arrows like lasers! :D
