Ok. I will make this a static recurve as planned. I didn't mean I was gonna make a longbow I meant shoot it with longbow tips a lil and then do recurves. I don't know if it will be a recurve or a longbow with flipped tips tho. Either way it should be pretty cool. But I still think I'm a longbow guy

This is the price you pay when your not a sissy using straight sticks of wood.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

The folks who jumped in to help know what their doing and excited to see you succeed. Don't let em down. I look at it like this, if you quit you fail. If you don't meet your expectations, learn what went wrong and do again your trying. If you keep trying you never fail. You have everything you need to make this happen.  Can't wait to see the pics!
Excellence is a state of mind.  Whether you think you can or can't...you're right!
