I've been working on this thing for 8 months. I had it functioning last summer, but recently picked up some better fingers on AT and now its much better. As it is now, you have to remove the draw-stop (which is a huge pain) but the designer is working on some new fingers for binary bows and I'll be getting one of the first sets. He has been really great to work with. You can pm me for more info. I have it built where it will also push apart and I'm gonna try to use it as a draw board, but haven't fooled with it much yet. Here are the pics. Keep in mind, this was also my first experience with welding. It has been a lot of fun learning. The only thing I want to add is a small hook in the center to hang a bow from if I need to set it down for a second, and some plastic end caps for the open ends. If anyone knows where to get some, let me know.
