A little horn bow

<< < (3/7) > >>

welch2:
I worked on it for about a year ,waiting for each layer of sinew to dry, and having to work on it only when my son wasn't around, took up alot of time. I let each  layer dry about a month . If I make anouther and try for higher draw wieght ,I'll try to pull more reflex into it as I add sinew layers.

Glad you like it Bob  ;D ;D

I love it! My son is pretty jelous :'( I have been telling him I would build him a Mirkwwod bow for quite a while now, since you are making me look like a bad dad I better get on it, LOL. It is good to know that urac works on horn, I have a horn bow project in the works(wow I feel selfish ::))

welch2:
Jbell, I need to add, I lined the bamboo flooring up so that the glue lines from the laminations show on the belly and the back of the core.I think it adds lateral stability to such a narrow bow.
