Examine it real closely for signs of set, keep in mind that if any area is currently bending too much your only option is to drop weight down to a point where it is not bending too much. If an area has set it is bending too much and stay away from that area. Very common to set out to make a 50# bow with this style and end up with a 30# bow. Don't feel bad many of us have been there.

Hi Badger, I dont feel bad, but before I continue I d like to even the limbs, what means weaken the left limb as well at the same spot. For me it seems that the weak spot is where its deflexed by steam, what makes it hard to see. I only see that the limbs dont go in the same angle from the handle? Poundage is not my primary goal with this experimental try and i assume 40 are still in good reach...cheers
