Thanks again boys! your too kind!
meanwhile I have shot in that stick, did make some tiller adjustments at the sides and squeezed out a good more inches of drawlength. also painted the sides in a dark blue ........ I will take some pics when the weather gets better!

So you just took this bow and made it better?  8) 8) You are my hero! Looking forward to more pics.

I too value the Hamm and Allely encyclopedias. For me, I never stop noticing new information from them.

The idea of adding ground mica to hide glue like Chuck showed came to mind today. My neighbor has a pile of the stuff. Seeing this bow of yours reinfroces the notion.
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
