Acetone.

Stick Bender:
Thanks for adding that Mike I was going to use it but was afraid it would dry the horn out I have a 0.005 actionboo tapper sled comming from one of the guys on another site figured I would use it as a pattern it was cheaper then buying the materials to make it !

Stick Bender:
I didn't have a lot of time this morning but got a chance to lay out and make a limb templet from 1/8 in. Pattern ply wood for laying out the horn , you really get a concept of how short and narrow one of these bows are  when you lay it out , also got a friend from another site Kenny to make me a 0.005 tapper sled for the horn , I'm going to double check all the measurements & start laying out the core next & build a Dean Torges style form for glue up !

Tapper sled
