HHB Warbow: A build along
Ian.:
That is coming around really nice, is it holding all it's reflex up to this point?
Marc St Louis:
No it has lost some reflex. It has a bit more than 1" of reflex after taking it down but that bounces back up to more than 2" after an hour or so. Makes it interesting to brace
Badger:
You have a great eye for tiller Mark, those long bows are so hard to brace I wince just thinking about it.
Marc St Louis:
Thanks Steve. I made myself a jig for bracing these bows several years ago so it's not hard at all as I just use my weight to brace them. You do have to have a good hold of these reflex bows though otherwise they twist in the hand and that can be nasty.
FAW:
Hi, Marc
One of your former students following along - looks great so far. I have managed to turn what would have been a Warbow into a (now) youth bow, after getting one end a little too thin. Very interesting Marc, and thanks.
