Tri Lam almost finished
« on: February 09, 2013, 04:31:27 pm »
Had the Tri Lam pulled to 20 inches on the tree today, not looking too bad. Has a 1/8th + tiller which is what my bow design seems to like.

Thats not looking bad at all. A little stiff mid way on the right. That cedar is going to smell great when you start sanding.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

Looking good Roy - as usual!  Really like the looks of that.  Might have to add a trilam to the list of things to try.
Enjoy the hunt!  Mitch

Looks good. Nice wood combo. R/D tiller can be tricky. So far, so good.  ;)

This is the most deflexed/reflexed bow I have built. Question here. I assume that a bow of this design at brace height, the mid limbs will look more flat than a bow that has no deflex or very little deflex?

That tiller looks great Roy. Bet that is going to be a sweet shooter as well as a beauty with the tri lam.

I agree with every one else.  Looks good!  Sure it will turn out great!
