Title: My new "Quinn Stallion" Riser
Post by: Doug Treat on December 05, 2010, 01:54:00 PM
This is the new riser I made thanks to help from you guys here.  I wanted a lower wrist grip as well as having wood vs. metal (warm vs. cold).  I just shot it for the first time and I like it.

BTW, I ordered the glass accents, Smooth-On epoxy, and limb hardware from Binghams.  The wood (ash) was given to my years ago.  Total cost-about $30!

I can't really take credit for how it turned out...I didn't have much of a plan except that I wanted to duplicate the handle on my old Shakespeare.  I kinda just flew by the seat of my pants on this one but I kinda like it.

Looks real good!  And now you have extra epoxy to build another one for fun!
