Okely Dokely, I'm back with some info on my prospective Robin Hood, and some questions.
He's 5'8" with a 28" draw, asking for a 40# bow.
I have some hickory cut to 1/8" x 1 3/4" x 72" or so, and some white ash and elm cut to 1 3/4" x 7/8 (4/4)" x 72".
So for a 68"ntn, 40#@28" bow, what say you to hickory backed elm? I was thinking of gluing with Titebond III, unless there is a better alternative. And, as I prep the faces for gluing, how smooth would you recommend, 100 grit?
As always, your insights and suggestions are greatly appreciated, especially since this is my first attempt at lamination.
Frode
