The bow cut and the connector pieces fitted. Cutting to angle should give more solid contact in the joint. IŽll file the brass connector down to the shape after the resin has hardened.

Very nice!

"Forced-to-Retire" Bamboo-Ipe-Osage reborn as a TD-bow (carriage bow) and back at work. That tiny starting splinter superglued and tied, TD-connectors installed and covered with leather and the bow TruOiled several times. Scale shows now 78lbs@28" and 73lbs@26". Some pics added; full draw as in the original full length format in the beginning of this chain.
