Bails-UK Bow Build A Long

Wow Russ, the profile of the riser is sweet. This is a really cool bow.

 

Zach.

Thanks mate.

Well work has come to a stop for a little while.

I have just finished sanding in the first coat of the finish it will take a day or so for that to dry completely then it is back to wet sanding the finish smooth, then repeat another 4 or 5 times

The limbs are all but finished just need to do the tip overlays, going to go with black tips to match the black tails:d

 

Here is a couple of of her hanging in the shop drying.

 

Are the overlays on the limb tips for protection mainly or do they help w/ adding draw weight, I cant remember exactly what I read about it but I thought it had something to do w/ adding a little bit of draw weight.

 

Zach.

The tip overlays are for protection and for FF strings.

 

Ah I see, thank you for the info sir.

 

Beautiful Russ , looks great mate . Have you got a string colour in mind or are they set colours .

 

Dave.

You can have any color string you want.


As long as it's green/yellow with yellow center serving :d

 

Looken good.

 

I was gonna say Green and Yellow would look nice

 

Dave.

The armguard,stringer, brass inserts and DVD arrived today.

Still waiting on the arrows, feathers and blunts.

Oh and the Tabs from Joe.

 

LMAO he is gonna be set after he gets your package Russ.

 

Feels like my Bithday has come early , good job i had that overtime lastweek . My pockets are emptying quicker than i can fill them :d . Its all worth it tho .

 

Just a quick update.

All I have to do is finish the limbs off, I ordered some overlay material on Monday so thats the hold up at the moment.
I have the limbs sanded down ready for when I get the overlays done.

Here she is loosely put together, I have 1 more coat to put on the riser, plus the calf hair rest and some black felt under the limbs and the riser will be complete:d



The limbs look crappy at the moment because they have been sanded down and the clear class is a little cloudy but once I get finish on the cloudyness will be gone.

 

That looks awsome russ, limbs sanded or not its a sweet bow.

 

Man that looks sharp. Keep up the good work.

 

Thanks guys.

I just hope she shoots as good as she looks

Plus I hope I dont blow her up when I test shoot her:d

 

Awesome Russel!! She sure looks sharp. You done good!

 

Dave.

Here ya go.



You will see it on every shot:d

 

Cheers mate , I really appreciate you doing that . I have to say Russ , SHE LOOKS AMAZING . You have pulled out all stops for me and i don't know how to thank you enough
