How wide and thick are the limbs at the transition to the non bending tips and around that knot? Just trying to get an idea about my current project. Thanks Chris, Doobs
I don't measure poo doob's, tape measures are for guys like DQ! The area around the knot has a total healthy wood width that equals the limb width before and after the knot. You dig?
As far as thickness goes, its irrelevant as each stave is different, just tiller it out. I left 6" stiff on my straight limb and 7-8" stiff on my R/D limb. Looking closer, I think I could have got a wee bit more upper limb movement right in the middle, but it works.
