Re: WTB: Hickory backing strips
Thickness would depend on what your making with it mate. By the sounds of it (80" long) you're looking to make something i would like to play around with and quite heavy. If you're doing a warbow i would say 6mm thick then use a 4mm crown and put your hickory on edge grain if you can.
