I've been stalking the tiller on this thing today.  I have it to a 5 1/2" brace height.

 



And here is 45 lbs. @ 19".  Tiller critiques are welcome  :)  I think I need to get the outer third of the limbs bending a bit more.

I agree, the outers could move some, bub

I would get the outer limbs bending a little.  Six more inches to go.  We're pulling for you.  :)

I got it down to 45 lbs @ 21" before I had to stop today.  Those outer thirds don't want to bend much.  I might narrow them a little more.

It might just be an optical illusion, but is there a stiff spot or knot on the right limb at the intersection the second square over and one square down?

Almost there Clint ! I see the outers now but not not sure it's an issue at 21". Now I want to build one with this profile, I like it. :)
