been using a gizmo that I made from your instructions from about the second bow on--before I started, I could not see stiff spots in a limb at all.  It really helped to train my eye to where a bow needs to bend.  Even now, your eye can deceive you, but the gizmo doesn't lie.  Thank you.  It is nice to finally see a face to match with they user name.

So glad you did this!

Great! - I hope that is what I'm doing!  Seem to be making progress, just a new learning experience for me.  Will be back after it tomorrow, trying not to get impatient!  Watching the video is a great help!

Excellent video, Eric, with lots of good information. I know you’re proud of your Granddaughter; she did a great job. I use my Gizmo on every bow. I wish my shop was a clean as yours!

Thanks Eric.  That was a great video.  I have been using a gizmo for a long time but I learned something from the video.

I appreciate you taking the time to do this.

Thanks Eric, nice video and handy tool in it's place. :) I still have a box of them you gifted me in my shop we use all the time at the Classic, they are a great help. :) We have managed to keep up with most of them over the years.  ;) :)

thanks Eric, your video was enough inspiration to get me to build a better version of your fine tool.
Seems like common sense isn't very common any more...

Well done production Eric! Easy to follow - very clearly stated, and driving home the point of removing wood slowly should help future bowyers avoid costly errors. Thanks to you and your talented Grand daughter
