The Ante

The Ante or maybe The Anti ?

So it begins. These are a bit long for a Elon Race Race Rocket. Fix that up here directly.

Sweet. I'm looking forward to where all this reflexed, recurved craziness is going.

"Accent strips" .   lol.   I once had someone admire a thick dark  glueline in a bad splice thinking it was a slice of walnut.

I put them in the bow I just finished and they were a big talking point in OP hands. Cept they were on outside edge. They are dark and will look like "The Big W".

Helps if you where yer cheaters when cutting joints!

Come Again?

We're in the Recurve Shootout Arvin started. This is work shoppin not photo shoppin.

Did a 2 3/4 splice with a few .600" shims as I did not like the fit. I should have rasped a bit more out and put one more dark shim in.

Need one more in to make the pot runneth full.

Does that Samuel Adams make that glue joint stronger?  Cornfield flight shoot in may could be fun. Except the corn will be about 2’ high probably. Maybe not.
