Now that's interesting. The straight width taper pyramid profile will overstress the outer mid part of the limb (~2/3 of the way from fade to tip) if the thickness is kept constant as most people say to do with the pyramid shape. To maintain constant thickness from fade to tip the limb sides need to be curved out a bit from straight to keep the strain the same all along.

Did you want to go with the same 1-1/8" width out of the fades or try a bit wider this time?

Selfbowman:
The new handle glue up worked out fine.

Selfbowman:
I peeled a bit more weight off this bow cause I like shooting it. This bow took more set than sneak peek  two the wiggle bow. I think it failed in tension due to the trapping. Can’t prove it though. Arvin

This should be your 3D bow!   :OK

Selfbowman:
Here they are together
