THE KEN75 HOLMGAARD ***NEED HELP AT BOTTOM OF PAGE PLEEEAAASSEEEE!!!!!!
« on: October 11, 2009, 11:57:14 pm »
Here is a little project for a friend I recently met KEN75! It's made of MAPLE and its a Holmegaard I wanted to make one as I found out he doesnt have one and I believe everyone should own a Holmegaard!!! Sorry about the poor quality pics but as I progress I will try and take better ones!!! KEN75 this is from me to u!!! :o :o CHEERS!!!

Maybe not a microscope, but a good pair of binoculars is needed for a few of them. It looks like you are making good progress.  Justin

The red oak in lay blew out I tried to use gorilla glue!!! Good news I set it up on tiller still pulling a good weight ideal minimum for hunting deer!!!I want to know if I should sand out the little bit of lip i chiseled in for the red oak or replace it with something else and use epoxy and by adding backing it should help as well!!! Please if anyone is reading this Id really like to save this BOW!!!!
CHEERS!!!

All I can say is DO NOT TRUST THE GORILLA GLUE FOR BOW REPAIRS!!! been there, done that and won't do it again!!
Can't go wrong with real hide glue.
