ken looks the bow looks great.i bought a red oak plank 1x3x72 at lowes 1 end had a 1" split in it ask one of the employees if i could get a discount he said yes so i got the plank for 4 dollars an 35 cents has good grain.got home at 9 am and worked on it until 10 pm.ready for backing.65" t to t riser 5"grip 3 1/2" fades 2"to 1/2" thickness 1/4".floor tillered it bends all the way through handle.the rdb will not cover the back in 2 pieces so i think i will use linen.my wife found so material that looked like linen but it looked stronger.you may think this is crazy but i might wrap the whole bow in it.kink

sounds like that will work kink. you can join rawhide with a skive jointjust sand it off to a point and overlap the feathered off parts. but linen should be fine. thanks scott ipe is a sweet wood
