I have made the mistake many a time Noel. In future, taper the belly before gluing so you get even reflex along the entire length and make it a little wider than you would for a straight bow, as it's going to want to twist on you. Have fun  >:D

dont worry, besides finishing up my trade item in the next few days, it is my first priority..... you will either see progress, failure, or a success very soon

Cool, I was just joking anyway, I am the king of procrastination when it comes to bows myself,  ;D.

Come on guys, aren't bowyers supposed to be patient??  >:D  Don't pressure the young lad into a premature explosion,  let the explosion happen at his own pace.   >:D

Ha ha.  If you can't tell from the tone of my typing, I'm just bustin' your balls Noel.
