tiller advice needed please

[stuckinthemud]

Hi Guys, last one for a little while; this is the last-but-one of my summer projects, the heavy - short- longbow is on hold till I make up a 3:1 pulley/tree.  I digress.  This little light bow, christened Pixie-dust by its young archer is  laurel hollow-limb about 63" ntn; the one limb dips and is slightly twisted - I'll have another go at heating that out once the tiller is finished.  Bow draws to 20# at 26", but at the 20# draw she uses is a slightly-too-heavy 15#.




Thanks for looking, all advice welcome

You're a tad stiff near the lower fade.

You can see it when braced and at full draw.

Looks like it will be a nice little bow.

Also, correct the limb twist before you finish tillering, or your tillering will be off again after the heat correction.

Those V light bows can be a pig...

Hi Del, you can't tell from the pictures, but the depth of timber is about 3mm..............really struggled with this bow but learned a huge amount, have sorted the area above the fade, just the overlays and finishing left to go.

Yes, those light bows can be tough. Very nice bow. Jawge
