Thanks y'all

mikekeswick:
Chances are you won't find a suitable piece of wood.
You can make cores either 3 piece or 5 piece using V splices.

james parker:
mike is right,, its very hard to find just the right pc of wood  for a 1pc core,,i gave up finding that pc of wood long ago,,but I have made a core with just three pcs,the riser carved in ,the siyahs added later,,
using just one  can be done ,takes a lot of looking and culling of material... 

p.s.  I do have an acient  crab bow, that the limbs and siyah are 1 pc then splices at the riser,,,hence    proven methods =proven results

ssgtchad:
Guys thank you for your time.  Like the saying goes of it ain't broke don't fix it 8)
