64” recurve computer design

[Selfbowman]

Allen Case designed this bow that I’m building. It’s another challenge for me. I’ve got the widths real close and the thickness kinda close. I want the heat to form the wood as even as possible. Sorta the same design as the mini recurve I did.

This should be good.  I'm looking forward to how the design shoots.

First heat session on this side.

Handle section at this point.

 I like that, great design and a good length for a wood flight bow. Whats your raw length going to be?

Looking good Arvin.

I feel like I’m standing right next to you in your bow shop. Looks like a interesting design.

How much weight and draw length?

64”ntn 50@28. First heat session complete. Now when it cools I’ll start on completing my he glue up in the handle.

[Selfbowman]

Glue up done.

I hate that part.

I like this design, and I would like to try it.    How thick is the smallest part of your raiser, where you heated it for the bend?


Thanks Steve

Looking good, nothing much smoother than a R/D design. Not sure on them being the fastest but are almost always sweet shooters.

At the bottom of the 1/4 moon it’s about to 3/4” thick. That is enough to dry heat the deflex in. Also you can take the propeller out if you have any. Matching the piece back in so you have a tight glue joint  is a pain but worth the out come. Forth heat correction. Getting close. I have the limbs close on width and thickness. Sanding block from here on out.

Got her lined up pretty good.

   Because of the high early draw weight, these bows are very easy to come in light on. The bow looks great.
