Snaky Osage

Muskyman:
Exactly what I did Pat. Watched a video Weylin has online on layout. Still have a few questions.. how to address the problem with this knot is the main thing..The dark line is where the outside edge of the limb is..
I plan on leaving-it at 74 inches. My draw length is 30.5
Should end up about 72 inches knock to knock

Muskyman:
Here it is now

Pat B:
As long as the knot isn't darting into the bow you should be able to go around it and then mimic that curve by going out on the other side of the limb. This would depend on the knot and how the knot is positioned in the limb.
 Will you post a pic of the side with the knot and the belly at the knot?

PaSteve:
Exactly what Pat said. Leave it a little wide on the opposite side of the knot. I've run into a similar ssue on an osage stave and the bow worked out fine. Patience is your friend. Good luck. That's going to be a neat looking bow.

Muskyman:
Might have went to far on the off side. Here are a few pictures. First is the bottom. Knot it right where the pencil mark is
