Fab! If it helps , you can sometimes use a side-nock to pull the string across a little

Today was to be tillering day, but in handling the stave, planning it out i realized most all of my successful correction had been lost as the stave sat this week. So I have resteamed for a third time, nearly 2hrs worth. And reclaimed the stave straight. I will let it spend the whole week clamped, and maybe even hit it w the heat gun on Thursday? Hopefully the correction will set in and I can again try to tiller on coming Sunday....Paul
paulc:
Morning All, things continue to not work out for me to work on this bow. PLEASE don't wait on me. When I went to tiller this past weekend I found the correction was not much and instead of left to right bend I had a front to back bend that now I want to try and steam out. Add to the stave woes I no longer have access to my usual work area as my wife and I have split up. Currently using an apartment kitchen counter as my "work bench". Needless to say not a great set up.
If I ever get a bow made from this thing I will post it....Paul

Still waiting on another trade member, so don't sweat too much, sorry 😞 you're going through such a tough time
paulc:
We sleep in the bed we've made, eh? It'll be okay with time. Paul
