If anyone could use a reflex/ deflex bow form. Send me a pm. Pickup only . I live in the western suburbs of Chicago. Dick

 

[Dick4bows]

I can't believe I can't get any takers. This is a first class form two inch reflex and one Inch deflex. Plywood capped with aluminum. Complete with a firehose for pressure. I just hate to pitch it. It make a great longbow

 

[Bowbender Mike]

That's a very generous offer, Dick. I'm afraid the pickup thing limits the possible takers. Shipping would be a killer.

I'd love to take it off your hands but just can't come get it surely someone here is in your area and wants one!

Mike. Are you anywhere near Grand Rapids? I will be visiting my brother in about two weeks.

 

[stevelong]

Mike would be around 70 miles from Grand Rapids, MN.

Mike. Are you anywhere near Grand Rapids? I will be visiting my brother in about two weeks.

Steve's got it about right, I'm in Bemidji, about an hour West.

 

[Dick4bows]

Are you willing to go to Grand Rapds to pick it up?

 

[Bowbender Mike]

Yeah, I'd run over there and pick it up.

You guys are killing me, 1hr away and not jumping on this.

 

[mnxs54]

I'd come get it this winter, but that's the best I can do. My son will be in Janesville which is close enough.

 

[Dick4bows]

Bowbender has already claimed it. Sorry.

 

[Dick4bows]

Bowbender, I just took the formout of my shed. The cold must ave popped te aluminum glue joint. All you ave to do is reglue and use te fire hose clamp to reattach it. Be sure you use Seran wrap to keep any glue off of the hose. I am going to include my build charts for determining weight to length and lamination charts. It will save you a lot of experimentation. It allowed me to build a bow to within 2 lbs of my target weight. We can talk about it when you pick up the form. Have you made bows before? If not I wil explain dos and don'ts.

 

[Bowbender Mike]

That shouldn't be a problem. I haven't built any bows yet, but I have a friend who has. He has an oven I can use. The charts will be a bonus! Thanks! I have a piece of ipe that will make a heavy riser.

Mark, we can figure out a way for you to get your hands on this too, I get down your way fairly often these days.

I can see a venture into bow building and wood arrows coming....:thankyou:
