I have split bigger. Best thing to do is cut the logos to length, paint the ends, let it sit a few months then start splitting. Sometimes ill start a split and leave it for a few weeks with the wedges in it. It will dry where the split is and open more on its own. When they get that big, you let science do some of the work for you. Even a day or two left with wedges in a split can make a huge difference. Where are yall at? You may have a few folks on here close enough to help.

I hope most of yall have seen this already but some may have not. We are doing an end of year giveaway with several ways to qualify.

That’s what I’m thinking too gonna sinew it today. Hopefully we’ll end up around the desired weight after sinew and dialing in the tiller

Definitely wait for advise from more experienced bowyers than me, but it’s kind of hard to see fine detail against the backgrounds you have. I think at this point your tiller looks pretty good, and at 33#@23” I’m betting you’re awful close to your desired40#@26” before sinew. You will have to adjust the tiller after you apply sinew but I don’t know how much weight gain you might gain with the sinew. But I’m guessing you might want to add it before tillering any farther.

I did the same with a half moon cut out. It worked well. You can also take propeller out that way also.
