That sucks after all the work, but you know its all part of this game we play.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

Oh my! Look at those Hooks.

Pretty sure I can salvage my double backing strip and continue with the same bow plan.   I really want to make this specific bow. Stay tuned.

  Nice work, Weylin.

Pat, as much as I've messed with Ipe, that crap is common. The first thought that crossed my mind when you posted was wrap the questionable spot with thread wrap and glue. I have a recurve JamesP gave me four years ago that did the same thing and I've done nothing to it and the small crack has never gotten larger. Good luck, I think you can save it.

   I think it would hold up but it wouldn't feel right sending off a patched up bow for a trade like this.

Yea, I understand, I'd feel the same way. If it was coming to me it would work. ;D ;)

  Those small cracks work fine in flight bows.
