Just got a new to me Ne Telum off ebay. Upon inspection I found a delam starting right where the limb tip wedge ends. Both tips are lifting on the belly side about 1/8 inch. The tips i am sure i can fix but the other part i'm not so sure how to go about getting straight and stuck again. Any bowyers opinions are greatly appreciated. Please help as I really want to shoot this baby someday. I can post pictures if needed.

I’d try some thin CA glue, a clamp, and catalyst. I like the Bob Smith Super Thin.

No way to even guess without seeing a picture of the problem.

The limb tip is at the bottom of this pick. I have BP spoiler with a fix in the exact same spot. Just don't know what to use or how to go about it.

PopeandYoung51, thank you for the suggestion. That seems to be what i've found online as far as fixes go. Any other opinions?

I have a similar problem to fix. The guy that built the bow said to string the bow and then apply the thin super glue.

Joe, 2 bears, who posts here, can give you great information as he has fixed many such things. He also could fix it for you. PM him, he does great work.

Thank you George! I just may ask him. I really like this one and it is a rarity. Hate to screw it up or make a fix impossible.
