Re: First gun build, thoughts and pics
Don't worry about planing out the bows before laminating. Just have them arranged like this... () or )(. Do not do... (( or )). Hope that makes sense to you. Also, I wouldn't be in any rush to epoxy them just yet. Maybe it's just me and I let things sit for too long, but I wait two weeks after ripping before laminating. This allows the wood to take their natural bow and set. Once you've laminated it and the epoxy has cured then you can plane it and square it off.
