Sneak peak.
bjrogg:
It really looks like you have enough thickness in the handle area from the original stave to make gluing another handle work on Arvin. I’m thinking this time around will work

I’ve found that Black walnut is just about only suitable for arrow nocks...and almost not even those, because my served strings work through them over time. I’m gonna need to burnish all of my walnut nocks.
I’ve had nothing but failures for BW tip overlays...but as handle material BW should work. I would use multiple thin strips of it, as suggested.
Black walnut is gorgeous wood, but it is just so dern brittle.
Selfbowman:
Glue up.
Selfbowman:
Those bar clamps are just snuged. Pearl wants lots of oozz. 🤠.
The trouble light is at about 125-130 degrees.
Selfbowman:
Went to Sarrles Archery and picked up the smooth on and some scrap wood . Can’t remember what the wood is . I think it’s called pretty.🤠 shame it does not show more.
