Forgot to add photos haha

superdav95:
Those are some unfortunate cracks.  If it were me I would consider a belly lam or horn if you got some.  You will need to groove down past the cracks to be safe I would say.  How many grams of sinew do you figure you put down?   

pierce_schmeichel:
I am not sure how many grams I put down but it was 2 layers. Not huge layers but decent. And yes I have some bison horn!

Also would it be a good idea to just shave until those cracks are gone and then add another layer or 2 of sinew instead of belly lam?

What part of NoDak are you in?
