I like it Bub.Coming along very nice.Nice work.I forgot the length on this one but the way you glued it up should not hardly take any set at all in the working limbs.Even with the flipped tips.It'll be a really good shooter.
I've got the material here to do that type of bow here too.I should get onto it sometime.

Bub, ya may have forgotten . . . 27" is enough for me. Just need to get weight down.
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857
