well, the core is sitting in a trough, soaking in water
been there since... oh... 10pm last night?
the wood glue is slowly coming loose
once delamination and clean-up is complete, I shall relaminate the core, with the additional poplar side elements, laid up on the curve template to pre-bend the core.
considering how resistant to soaking this carpenter's glue has proven to be, I am at a loss as to why I should use epoxy...
Good luck with te big bow!
Last night, I did something crafty - I painted ceramics. They are supposed to fire it in the kiln during the week, and I can pick it up next weekend. I hope it turns out okay!
