@@ttwil9810 It’s a new bow so not a re-release, but I’m always interested in feedback. Somewhere back down the line someone clued me in on the poor adhesive qualities of vinyl resins like Bondo, and that helped me out a ton.
Nothing specific… I think I do something a little different every time. I angle it up from belly to back every time though… couldn’t say for sure that it even matters.
Awesome. May i ask what is the difference between this epoxy here and EA40? Could this epoxy in this video be used as an adhesive to glue the bow limb laminations together as well? Or is this a totally different epoxy for different use case?
@@musaadfelton3909 The short answer to your question is, I don’t know… I’m not thoroughly versed on epoxy resins, but here’s why I don’t think they are interchangeable: EA-40 is a flexible adhesive, where this epoxy is meant essentially for casting shapes. The casting qualities in combination with the fiberglass make it incredibly rigid. I suspect you could probably do similar work with EA-40 as with the epoxy in this video, but I don’t think it would work the other way around since this epoxy is so brittle. Used as the sleeve epoxy, EA-40 might even actually flex a little through the grip - here again, I don’t know for sure. Hopefully, somebody reading can chime in with an answer.
greetings sir and everyone.its always an exciting feeling watching you build bows and lots of knowledge you sharing.that bow is awsome,beautifull
@@bienyamientoefy1923 thank you Bienyamien!
Looking awesome, I always appreciate your attention to detail on every step!
Thank you! I appreciate you taking time out to watch!
Lots to learn from this video. Thank you!
@@knolltop314 Thank you! Hopefully it helps!
Awesome as always. Nice job and nice bow
Thank you - I appreciate you taking time to watch!
I have scene this before did you re release this? as I would have done the wrap differently being from a fiberglassing background

Well done! Is there a specific angle degree and direction of the tenon?

@@meadowlarkadventuregear makes sense. I look forward to more people chiming in here, who has some knowledge on epoxy resins.
