I still don't understand why you aren't following the proven method Lukasz showed ?  ???

Wasnt he using sinew on his bows? I dont want sinew. Unless you mean someone else.  But I cant be sure I dont remember things well.

That's irrelevant to getting the bend.

I think this is the link. I dont have a table or anything like that to make those bends. Maybe I need a 2x12x5 to put pegs in.

The real magic of his set up is his steam box. That I need to figure out. And make it work with osage.

He's boiling the whole thing. You just need to steam the whole midsection.

I was able to finally get the profile shape i am after, and am quite happy with it. Its exactly what inam looking for. It has the deflex in it to take up what set it would have so hypothetically it should take no set. That should boost performance in efficiency.

Due to its design this style of bow can not store the energy of an equal draw weight and length bow of longer design.  So I am trying to make up for stored energy loss by using what it does have more efficiently.  This bow should behavewell on arrow eenergy especially with a heavier grain one to eek all the energy this bow has to offer.
