Awesome what you can do with "scrap" wood!

Thanks man! I can only stomach so much good wood going to the waste pile… or worse yet the fire pit!

Thanks for a really interesting and informative video. One question I had was concerning the initial view of the twist in the one limb. Is it possible to induce some twist by the knot that is used on your tiiering string? The reason I ask is that the knot seemed to have a bit of leverage in the direction that the twist was noted. Thanks again.

I use a timber-hitch knot on one end of my tillering string during tillering. It is totally possible for that knot to induce/cause limb twist. I’ve used it to my advantage regularly during the sweat in period of my tillering process. Since it cinches down on the limb, you can position the string to favor one side of the limb vs. the other. My experience, however, is that it has minimal real effect without other interventions.

When tillering with a long string what weight should I be to have 50 lb bow. The difference between long and strung.

Generally speaking, you’re not going to be able to extrapolate the weight of a strung bow based on the draw weight with a long string - there are just too many variables. So much so that I don’t even use my scale when doing long string tillering. That is also the reason that I move to a short string as soon as possible in the tillering process. Limbs behave very differently when strung on a short string…
