load of fence post

[RandyN]

Here is how I got to the fix in the last post.
I put the strip of leather on the back. Then took sinew soaked in warm water and wrapped the area over the leather and around the nocks. Let it dry overnight. Then applied 3 coats of Superglue to the sinew.
I have mentioned a few times while running into problems with this bow that I use SuperGlue. Here is what I use. It very thin so it penetrates cracks deep into cracks and it works great on sinew. After gluing the sinew and letting it dry, I was able to use a rasp and sandpaper to smooth out the sinew.

This will be the final post of this bow. I still need to take to Brad so he can shoot it and give his opinion of the bow. Then I need to show it to a couple other guys, one being the guy who gave me all the wood posts.

The specs on the bow are:
65" NTN
55lbs @ 26"
Shoots best at a brace height of 5.5"
Shoots a 616 gn arrow @ 150 fps
Shoots a 480 gn arrow @ 160
I put a 14 strand B50 flemish twist string on it

The next couple posts will be all pics so you can see as much of the bow as possible without actually touching it.
Thank you for following along on this journey. I hope some of the info here can help someone that doesn't have access to the perfect stave still make a nice bow that shoots.

Here is a couple pics at full draw. The top limb has natural reflex and also is the one with the twist.

Not sure what happened. Here is a couple more pics that show the handle, and how the string lines up thru the handle.
