Well mine was a deer antler tip overlay!
Another tip, after flatening a antler tip overlay always fill the pith with superglue and let it dry. Then a little bit of sanding on a flat surface and your ready to glue it on.
That is if its not covered with cooking oil like mine was!

When steaming recurve in tips it's always nice to have another set of hands. I've tried several different methods of holding tip and metal backer strip on caul. This is what I finally settled on and I love it. It's like another set of hands when you really need them. It's also very fast which is extremely important. I'll let the pictures tell the story

A product here that is very useful for glueing purposes.An A+++ product.It's called Tear Mender.Instructions are on the back of bottle but basically it's a white latex type glue used to repair canvas.Actually will hold better than stitching.The liquid is massaged into the surface of each item then pressed together.Instant bond as contact cement.I've used it bonding many things here permanently.I used it to make trade wool lined canvas bow cases.It basically made the bow case waterproof also.You can google it.
I've also used the product to repair many canvas items as I have a wall tent/teepee/and squaw cooler awnings.Repaired deer blinds also.It stands the test of time.Good product.

Looks like good stuff. I have a few pairs on jeans that I could use that on. ;)
