Hey all, im looking for some pics of bow forms for reflex deflex, making laminated bows and i cant find any good ones, and i really do not know how to make the laminated bow forms, any advice??

Pat B:
You can get blueprints from Bingham Products. A lot will depend of the amount of reflex and deflex and the length of the bow.
