No need to post pictures for me Keenan. I was curious because I've noticed that John Strunk will often slightly radius the belly of his white wood bows. I've tried that a few times, but not with much success.

 Well when I said flat I should have added not completely. It is slightly rounded. I roughed to a floor tiller flat with a farriers rasp then started scraping with a 6 inch planer blade.
  Almost flat at the handle, then slight radius on the mid limb and scraped more on the sides as I approached the tips. Hope that helps, That is why I was thinking of pics.
