Will B:
I’d go 1-1/2” to 1-3/8” at the fades and straight pyramid to 3/8” tips. I’d flip the tips (working recurves) and make it a stiff handle, 4” long with 1-1/2” fades. Good luck with your build.

CrazyHorse1969:
Thanks! Appreciate it.

Agreed for the weight you are going for.   The risk you take with going too much wider for that draw weight your aiming for is a potentially unstable bow.  Best of luck.
