Winter project - Yew Recurve bow

<< < (12/65) > >>

portlandfire:
   As always, exceptional work.  I am really looking forward to the finished product.  Keep it up!

Prarie Bowyer:
Thanks.

1) Learning alot.

2) wondering why not band saw off the bigger pieces for speed and pieces to laminate somewhere like riser accents or under a harder tip overlay?

Gordon:
Prarie Bowyer, I have plenty of yew scraps already and I didn't feel like using power tools on this one.

Thank you all for the support. I'll have more posts to add soon.

Elktracker:
Cant wait!

Gordon:
Next I am going to make some pin nocks for holding the string.  I narrow the ends of each limb to ¾”. The nocks will be ¾” long and taper to ½”. I draw a pattern on the front and side of the limbs that will be my guide when shaping the nocks.
