here are a few pics of some of the bows after sinew, the are in the latter stage of jelling and begining to dry somewhat,,thanks for the comment  fusizoli,, hedgapple  a bow with these kinds of splice would surely hold with a hickory backing

Wow, I agree, my sinew jobs don't look like that either.  Did you ever get that picture I sent?  I tried both email and PM.

Wow James, You are entering a whole new dimension in your bow building. Just knowing the beauties that you make with laminate bows, I can't wait to see your works of art.

James, those are mighty fine looking bows, like you said, if i shoot these bow in Asia, i will
soon find myself shooting in a bow of noodle LOL!  Humidity here is 90% through out the year.

Any way if you really waterproof it well say with 10 layers of waterproofing, will it hold?

Whats the different in terms of cast, power between a 1) bamboo bow and 2) sinew bow.......considering
the specs are the same for both bows?
