Ash warr bow....

<< < (2/5) > >>

Tom_Brone:
you will need to get the right limb working more in the middle (because you will get chrysals at the fades, or a hinge), and the whole bow bending more towards the tips.

Hy guys...here is the bow after a little work that i done today.....i dont know what happents, but it seam that its realy tricky to tiller this bow.... :-\....usuly i tiller a bow in a fiew hours, but with this one its a little dificult to tiller.....i have notice a fiew points where i need to do a little more scraping but i realy need your opinion to....thks a lot.

alanesq:
I have drawn an arc on to your picture as I find doing this can help a lot on deciding how the tiller is going and what needs adjusting etc.

I think you just need to get it bending where the green blobs are and you will then be getting pretty close :-)
