Title: Stronbow is no more
Post by: BenBow on January 06, 2008, 08:34:00 PM
Guess I can't leave things alone. Had the longbow limb blanks that I converted to limbs for my metal riser. Well I had some rosewood and maple scraps laying around and I just couldn't help myself. Now those limbs are on a forward handled longbow.

I'd like to make some kind of plugs to cover the limb attachment bolt holes. Anyone have any good ideas?
