Title: width of recurve limbs
Post by: The Gopher on December 18, 2007, 07:12:00 PM
OK, i've been pouring over the binghams catalog, trying to piece together a project. this will be my first attempt at a laminated glass bow. i noticed that all the press kits, etc. either come in 1 3/4" or 2" widths. What width limbs do you all have for your forms? thanks, Dan.

Dan, You can use either the 1 3/4" or 2" for a recurve-the 1 3/4" is more commonly used and this is what I use for my recurves. For a long bow you use the 1 1/2" material.
