Going to try another DIY follow along on building a take down long bow. I have done a youth take down recurve and a regular recurve. Here are the links to those.
This thread will be very similar to those. These have all been Binghams designs and plans with just a few personal changes here and there.
So, just like with the others this is my first of this style so we have to build our forms. These plans call for 12" X 33" X 1 1/2" plywood form. I used 3/4" Ash cabinet grade plywood but it wasn't going to be a full 1 1/2" thick so I have some phenolic material that I sandwich between the plywood and got it to a full 1 1/2". Lots of Titebond glue and screws. Of course trying to not put any screws where the form will be cut later.
