What size string is needed for a 66 inch recurve bow?

To get close to the correct size you need the measurement from tip to tip, yours is 66 inches. Take the tip-to-tip measurement and subtract 4 inches for a string length of 62-inch string. This will get you close, for the string length needs to be changed by adding or subtracting twist to get the correct brace height. The brace height is the measurement from the handle to the string. The bow manufactures sets the specifications for brace height. If brace height is unknown and pull weight is known you and twist or untwist the string to get the correct pull weight at 28-inch draw.By Cupidsgatearchery: Almost all recurve manufacturers made their bow that would require a string 4 inches shorter than the stated bow length, except when Hoyt riser is used which would require a string 3 inches shorter than the stated bow length instead.Answer improved by: CUPID'S GATE ARCHERY - San Francisco & Marin County www.cupidsgatearchery.com


How do you install and brace a laminate bar countertop that extends eighteen inches?

That would depend on the length. I assume the entire top is 36 to 42 inches wide? A 6 foot long section should carry itself but you can always add a shelf bracket underneath.


A brace for a shelf has the shape of a right traingle its hypotenuse is 10 inches long and the wo legs are equal in length how long are the legs of the traingle .need the formula please?

The only formula you need is one that we're sure you already know.In every right triangle,(leg-A)2 + (leg-B)2 = (hypotenuse)2In this right triangle, the legs are equal, and the hypotenuse is 10.(leg)2 + (leg)2 = (10)22 times (leg)2 = 100Can you take it from there ?


How do you cut wood braces?

simple wood braces that are to be nailed in place are most often set at 45deg., but can be set at the ratio 3-4-5. 3 being the horizontal measure, 4 the vertical and 5 the diagonal (and length of the brace). the brace should be as long as practical and works best if used in pairs. the length of the brace can be determined by using the formula A sq. + B sq. = C sq. A & B are the sides of the angle and C is the hypotenuse (or brace length) of the angle. sorry if this is vague but you Q's was not specific.

What does 'splice the main brace' mean?

Splicing the main brace was a reference to fixing the main brace of the sail that had broken, usually in a storm or battle. It was hard and dangerous work to splice ropes, some up to 5 inches in diameter, in such a situation. It became typical to reward the sailors with an extra grog ration. In today's Navy it refers to an opportunity to get a drink. "I'm going ashore to splice the main brace."
