Starting a wild looking osage Update... COMPLETED with full draw
LeightonM:
I got the limbs reflexed. However in the process I think I over heated one area that had to move laterally and the belly cracked just above midlimb on the top limb. See attached picture. Is there any effective fix? Or have reduced this one to a light draw bow?
The profile isn't quite what I want. I think I'm going to deflex the handle some more. As it is the tips are about 5" ahead of the handle.
LeightonM:
Here is the profile as of now.
simk:
If the back is not affected you could fill that crack with 2k and be fine. The 2k will handle compressipn easy but not tension on the back. Good luck!

Ok thanks for the feedback. I'm not familiar with 2k however. What is it?
simk:
2k = two part epoxy
Maybe someone else can suggest you a specific product. I'm not familiar with the us market.
