Ian.:
Don't touch it. You can't make a bow better by what you're doing, leave it alone.

We are actually a rare bunch, many don't even use measurements!

Del the cat:
I have shortened, lightened and reworked bows with cracked tips made by a well know Italian bowyer.
Mind I was reducing the to ladies weight.
It is an o[ortunity to learn from others mistakes and either succeed or make some of your own.
It is a no loose scenario if the bow is too heavy and has problems anyway.
Learning and experience is priceless.
Ignorance is free and instant...
Did I just say that? It's a keeper! :)

Lot faster for me to make calculations if I don't have to mess with fractions.

FilipT:
Metric system all the way! Ok, maybe its easier for width in inches, but thickness taper is far better when you look at the millimeters.
