Osage Selfbow
Selfbowman:
Thats a sweet bow. I like to flip the tips in the same way.,
Pat B:
Very nice Osage bow. :OK
sleek:
That tiller looks immaculate! With the bow stats you gave, and assuming an 8 inch handle, the bow should have taken slightly less that half an inch in set, which is impressive on its own. How mich set did it take?
bentstick54:
Thanks guys.
Sleek, the set immediately after unstringing has about 1” of set, but after sitting for awhile settles in about 1/2”. I was hoping Arvin would come in on another thread when I was asking for advice on about the last 4” of tillering since this was my 1st attempt at flipped tips. All of the set is in the outer 1/3rds of both limbs evenly. So at least its consistent.
Almost forgot, handle is 4” with 3” fades.
bjrogg:
Nice bow Brian. Love the profiles.
Hope the hand surgery goes well.
