Just curious Marc. What makes it unstable? The last few I've built have shot good and held up fine. I know I, by no means, am a seasoned bowyer. But all I have to go on is the ones that I've built.
I will say of the Lord,"He is my refuge and my fortress;
  My God, in Him I will trust."  Psalm 91:2

im gonna agree with the majority , the only way it wouldnt be stable is if there was extreme REFLEX ,if your just gluing in some mild reflex (flipping the tips) then i dont see a problem. i would build it ... but then im an amateur !
