VicNova:
Hi there,
I am new to the forum and I was wondering if anyone would be interested if I made a tutorial on how to build a recurve jig?

VicNova:
Here is what you will need:

2-sheets of 5/8" thick plywood

1 1/4" finish nails

Saw(tiger saw, band-saw, or handsaw)

wood rasp

Drill

1" wide drill bit

wood glue

6 clamps and or a vise
 

osage outlaw:
I would like to see it.  Thanks for posting

Fred Arnold:
I'd like to see it also. Getting prepared to make some forms and could use the help of a tutorial with pics.

VicNova:
First I clamp together the boards with the c-clamps.

Then I trace the curve outline on the wood. For this step I use an actual bow limb to model the curve after , but you could also freehand it.
