With the bow string on it:

It looks to me like there might be a hinge on the right limb about mid-limb? and the left limb seems a little stiff? I thought the tiller looked good until I put the bow string on it. there is a little place in the right limb where I cut a little close with the band saw. Its right past the handle.
What do you guys think?
Looks like U R in violation of not using "THE GIZMO".
I know. I need to get or make me one. I guess I should get one before I go any further.
You might want to post this on the bowyers bench that's were all the bow makers hang out.
looks good so far. a little stiff mid limb out to the tips. left limb is a bit stiffer than the right. post it on the bench. don
