Hi all,
I just trying to build some bamboo tackedown limbs my question is the belly laminations can stop at the end of the fade not going till the end of the wedge? because the wedge is 0.5" thick.Thanks Mike

That is posible but is a easy thing to get wrong so You may want to continue far enough to be sure its not gonna over stress it there!
A drawing or pic of your style will show us more !

Hey robustus what do you use to connect the limbs with the handle. I've been thinking of trying a takedown bow with black walnut.

Love the simplicity of this. The tiller needs to be determined by the taper of the inner laminations right?
