Hi,
If i wanted to use a hickory backing strip over some other wood to make a bow, and I want to imitate the yew sapwood/heartwood contrast...can I dye the belly piece before hand? Will the stain interfere with the epoxy in any way? I know that during tillering all the stained wood from the very belly will come off, but i want to avoid having to stain it later, at the joint between the backing strip and the belly lam...
