take down bows

[luke the drifter]

here is my situation, i have two 40 inch osage bow billits.  i want to make a take down bow.  i see where you can buy these kits that have what looks like a 5 to 6 inch maybe 3/4 or 1 inch (o.d.) pipe with two appropriately sized brass sleeves.  can you tiller a bow using this setup.  any pros and cons by doing this?

Sure you can still tiller the bow you can just make the handle first thing the carry on as normal. Or rough out the two limbs and then put the handle together.

Yep ,They work out just fine,I have made several,I think there is a build along
in the how to section,probable more than one. I have got mine set up from Three Rivers,but some on here have made there own.
