Getting horn laminations from gemsbok horn.[Pics added]
BowEd:
Or left flat with no grooves.Each will work on horn bows.To put them on regular self bows they don't need to be grooved.Just roughened up with lines from a hack saw blade and a slow setting epoxy used or hide glue too.Either c clamped every two inches for sure or wrapped with an inner tube wrap.Here is the results of one of my bows.My maple bow.I love this bow.
BowEd:
Side view.
Gus:
This is Exactly what I was looking for!
Thank You Sir!
I have all the tools except for the Laser and Spindle Sander.
And I'll be hunting them soon.

BowEd:
The laser thermometer will be chaep.The table top spindle sander if brand new runs about 130$ from Grizzly.Have fun.
BowEd:
Did a weight check on these laminations.They weight 6.9 ounces or 195 grams together.One weighs 1488 grains.The other weighs 1520 grains.A 32 grain difference.Not bad for eye balling it in my world sanding and all.
