Looking good!

George Tsoukalas:
bentstick, welcome. Shoot it at least 36 times and then check tiller and decide if you need to reduce it more. That's what I do. Jawge

I think the tiller looks good to my eye. I haven’t seen the unbraced profile so I’m assuming it was pretty even.

I would probably shoot it some more. Do some sanding and see how it feels then. If it take a little set and you lose a little weight from sanding you might be right where you want.

It’s easier to take weight off than to put it on. Wouldn’t rush anything at this point.

I like that you are still trying to perfect the tiller though and not just taking off lbs.

I took a few scrapes off mid limb like NonBacked suggested, then concentrated on the 4” or 5” out of the handle. Dropped weight to 48# so I’m stopping there. Shot about 30 more arrows through it and am happy with the way it feels in the hand at the loose, so I’m calling it good. Going to start finishing with Truoil , will post some photos when done. Thanks for all the help.

I have an Apple iPad, and an iPhone. How do I go about posting multiple pictures on 1 post, instead of individually on multiple posts? I prefer using the iPad due to the larger key pad if possible. Thanks for any assistance.
