Title: A thank you and tiller advice.
Post by: Mike_A on February 13, 2008, 09:24:14 pm
Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for wishing me well on my return from Iraq and especially to those that helped me while I was there. I've not forgotten you, just a slow learner. I've also sent a pic of my latest project. Nothing too fancy, just a linen twine backed red oak board bow with tempered belly. I'm not really shooting for a draw weight just wanting some tiller practice and if I get a bow out of it then bonus. I'm thinking the right limb needs to bend more, but I'm not sure if it's throughout or in just a place or two. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks and Ya'll have a good day. Mike

Yup the right limb needs to bend more, I would say its to early to say specifficly where, take some more shavings
off full length until it matches the left limb. Glad your home with your family again and thanks for serving Mike.
