        Hi Guys, I have notice that a few of the top custom boyers are offering their products with a Mosaic Accent through their riser laminations, my question is does any one know (a) how to make these Mosaic Accents or (b) where they can be purchased from ?

        Cheers

          They are easy to make. You take the stock woods you want to work with and glue them together in the pattern you want. Then slice them to the thickness desired for your lamination blanks and sand to thickness as required.

          There is a build-along on the Poor Folks Bows website somewhere….

            That’s a neat site. You guys keep talking about this stuff and one of these days I’ll get talked into trying to build one.

                dwcphoto,

                mate, you really should have a go at building one (or more)…. I am blessed with what seems to me to be two left hands ( two right hands for you lefty’s) and am a complete clutz when it comes to hand crafts but I have built two so far AND they shoot arrows !!!! Buddy just give it a go, you won’t be disappointed after all there is a wealth of helpful expertise right here on our site.

                all the best

                Cheers
