  That's my favorite profile, Mark St Louis influence. I don't do many like that but really like it.

I can't seem to break away from it now. I start on what will be nice straight bow and the next thing I know I've cut it in half and I'm splicing in deflex. It's starting to worry me ;D ;D

Hide your saws! :BB >:D (lol). I live close enough to the range to string at home, or just put my stringing tree in the suv!.  I like the idea of the Blocks as well.  They are a few inches longer than brace height?

I just grabbed those blocks for the picture. They are kinda unstable for stringing a bow. You can see the one on the left tipping over. Like Pat says wider than tall is better. A couple of tables would work better.

Adjustable

Hard mount those on a board, maybe on sliding tracks, with a boat winch in the middle to crank down on the handle, and you can have a heck of a tool.
