Ok, so I was supposed to lay out my glass lam bow as follows: glass, parallel, wedge , parallel, parallel, glass. I did that on one limb but on the other I did glass, parallel, parallel, wedge, parallel, glass.

Not that you would notice and the limbs are are the same stack regardless of how I did it.

I used my calipers and the limbs are very similar width at set points but tiller is off just a touch allowing for 1/4 positive on the bottom. Visually there is some slight assemetry.

Will my goof layout impact tiller?

Probably not.

I wouldn't think it will. Over all you have the same taper in each limb

Ok, I didn't think so but thought to inquire.

No problem, the limbs measure the same at butt and tip. 1/8" to 1/4" strong is the goal, not a problem
