Sorry for the late post, but i know ill use this because its hard to get decent wood in my neck of the woods, and gstoneberg knows that LOL hes used google maps to look my address up and if i say end of the road i means it lol

TRACY:
I tried this method when it first posted and still use it today when I splice. Although, I really like the technique that Mark St. Louis used in an article in PA a couple(?) years ago.

Calamitus:
Two questions about splicing. Do you use 1" x 4" splices regardless of the width of the billet? When you make a stiff handle, the block is glued to the spliced area before any shaping is done, don't the cuts to shape the handle run into the glue lines and is that necessarily a problem?

---GUTSHOT--->:
I used this method and work awsome thanks for posting

JEB:
Do you pin them with a wood dowel and glue?

We make self bows on thursday nights. One of the guys who has made many self bows had a HH bow and an osage bow break so he splice the two good limbs together. He is still working on that one.  Your thoughts, is it going to work?
