Roy, you probably mentioned it and I probably missed it,  but what is the width of your center and belly stock in the initial lay-up?

[Roy from Pa]

1.75" Mike.

My bows are 1.25 at the flares.

While we're asking questions, how long and what weight?

[Roy from Pa]

64" tip to tip, I'm shooting for around 35 pounds. At my age that is a comfortable weight for me to shoot.

[Roy from Pa]

Trimmed the limbs up almost down to the riser and put the horn tip overlays on. Can't cut out the rest of the bow till I glue the riser on.
