Tillering

I think tillering is just an underhanded way of getting you to do an upper body workout so that maybe you'll be able to pull the bow when you finish it. Rasping and scraping is work!!!
Whewwww

I gotta tell you its the most frustrating thing for me. Takes a good eye. You think you have it and dang, there's a flat spot. >:(

A lot of tillering is believing what your eye is telling you. And, yes... it can be hard work. If I'm hard at it and really concentrating on tillering out a bow, the sweat drips off my nose big time!

For me its the excercising between scrapings. Pull that sucker 20 to 30 times each time I remove wood. With a 50lb bow it gets tiring.
