Kviljos mini warbow (new pics on page 3)

<< < (8/8)

Kviljo:
It goes about 5-6mm higher than the sidenock, so the wood goes just under an inch into the horn.

I've changed the tiller a bit, and that made it 65# at 20", which should progress into 120 at 30.

Do you think it will live through a 30" draw?

Mediaeval and Tudor period standards for bow length were ; twice the arrow length plus two palm widths. For a short lived fiight shooting bow, one palm width less.

Kviljo:
The bow survived beeing drawn 28", but I won't test it for 30" as it has followed the string enough.
