Title: Aluminum Taper Sleds
Post by: tenbrook on July 25, 2012, 10:09:00 AM
I am looking to pick up a set of the aluminum taper sleds like the ones Kirk over at Bigfoot bows was making.  

He no longer sells them so I am looking for another option.

Anyone know where to get some nice taper sleds like those.  I already have some in action-boo.

thanks   :thumbsup:

By the way, I love the woods you posted on your facebook page.  Where do you get such nice looking boards from?

Cody,
RJR over on Encinal st. can mill some for you. Very reasonable prices. He has one of the water jet CNC machines and you can't miss his shop its the one with a giant easter island head made out of metal in the driveway.

Are his sleds adjustable for different tapers?
