l'm working on another recurve and just done one limb so far with no splintering whatsoever...so far so good
Hey that's some heck of a recurve...nice jig, great post.

I've done some very mild recurve, made a nice steamer, a wallpaper stripping steamer feeding into a box made out of insulation panel which I had left over from a roofing job (Expanded polyurathane skinned with aluminium) works a treat.

You can see it's just a quick slap it together job, held together with some tape! Note the importance of a tidy workshop
