Title: Breaking out an old project (pics)
Post by: Goose Gossett on September 01, 2011, 12:26:00 PM
I bent the tips a bit on this bow a while ago and just stared at it for quite a few months.  I picked it up today and started hammering away to get it braced well.  I won't shoot it until I get the string tracking well and an overlay with a string groove in it.  If yall have any ideas other than sand out a precut piece of whatever I decide to use and gluing it on I'm up for ideas.
