Fine tuning the profile. Spent more time on the heat bench than I have sanding.

Now I’m getting interested.

If the numbers get those profiles I will definitely be impressed.

Those outer reflexes are working pretty good.

Brad just stay tuned in. I’ve got some places that I need to add a hair.🤨🤠  this going to be a fun experiment. Engineer vs. Builder 🤠🤠


This is interesting Arvin.

It definitely isn’t how I build a bow. I’m definitely not the building to measurements type.

I rarely measure anything more than the length and rough handle dimensions.

I often get asked for measurements. It seems like I work with so much character wood that doesn’t tend to follow the blueprints.

Be interesting to see if the really clean wood will

I build the same way you do BJ. I couldn't tell you the thickness of any bow I've ever made.

Hey Arvin,
It looks like I didn’t send you all the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle!  Hahaha!

I was just joking about the missing sheets in the photo that depict the side profile as the bow is drawn.

I'm watching this with interest. How long and wide is the bow? Typical pyramid design?
