usually - 3" for longbow & - 4" for a recurve of n to n measurements and then add the 16 " for the loops and that is the length for the strands if not using a jig , most flemish string jigs incorporate this formula right in their design so one only goes by the nock to nock  length number on the jig  - a no brainer ! Good Luck !!!

spending 10-30 hrs making a bow around a string is nuts.. I have been buying very nice flemish strinngs from a guy on ebay for 8 bucks with free shipping..... build a nice bow... get the right string for it
I like to throw rocks at em..... just like my grandfather's, grandfathers, grandfather's, grandfather's, grandfather did

Oh Yeh ! Canoe it is very possible if you had a string first to build a bow around it - I don't see a problem with that either .  ;D
