Very nice! Is it a bit hollow limb?

Well spotted ;D I actually do that with all my flatbows lately. Not functional at all but more because I love how my slightly curved scraper works (lol) And I like the look of it.

Very great fix up! Did it stiffen the tips more? How long is the static part of the tips?
Thank you for showing us!
Cheers B2TW

Not that much. Before glue up I had to take quite some wood of the belly to flatten it. This was enought to make it almost the same stiffness after glue up

And thanks for all the compliments! Sometimes an accident or a mistake really turns in something good ;D
