Thanks guys! Just a quick update on this bow… I’ve had interruptions that prevented me getting as much done on this bow as I wanted. Buy that is the way it goes sometimes. Back at today. Got it bending real good just past brace height looking good and getting it all sized up with 8 coats of very thin hide glue mixed with sturgeon glue. I typically use a 20tpi blade to mark my grooves on the back prior to sizing. By the eighth coat it remained nice a shiny and ready to go for tomorrow when I start laying first layer of sinew. The first course will be about 45-50 grams. I like to lay it all out is little Tupperware tubs of water to keep good and wet. I weight out my sinew dry then separated into bundles for each limb. This is the system I find works for me to keep organized. It’s a sticky mess otherwise I find. It’s so important to get the good base layer of servers thin coats of glue to get it to adhere well. Thanks for following along!
