Well I got a chance to work on plan B today. Well now it's plan A. This is such a sweet stave and I can't wait to get back at it. It has a bit of natural deflex /reflex and I'm hoping for something that looks like a 5 curve. I may need a little help on tiller with this one. I've not tillered a 5 curve design. But I really like them and I'm up for the new challenges. Here is a couple of shots of the roughed out stave. Patrick

Deflex both limbs out the fades into mid limb. Then reflex the outter thirds to the point the tips come above the back 2-3 inches. Tiller it to look like a full draw horn bow . At least, thats what I would do....

Just got caught up on the thread. I've been traveling in Congo DR for the last three weeks. Really wonderful trip. When I left MN it was -20 F and last night we had thunder storms go through. So I am ready to be out in the garage here now and do some work on my bow.
Glad to hear your wife is doing ok Drewster.

Nothing to report here. A and B are still roughed out standing in the corner. Patrick
