Asiertxu:
All the bow you make Jaro ARE EXCELLENT my friend!! >:D 8) :D ;)...especially like your Warbows!!...are perfect...

Nice to see you around again mate.

I´ve built an Elm longbow ,ELB , specially designed for 32" draw length training. Next I´ll hope to do is to finish up that dense Ash Warbow I started more than a year ego

Remember that Jaro??.. :) ;)...

Glad to see you again!!

Cheers...

Hello Asier! How are you! This is 120# at 32´´ in ash.




Not as good, but not much follow, no frets either.

And this one is sort of 85# at 33´´





I like that one best out of three.

--- Quote from: sagitarius boemoru on April 26, 2008, 12:53:10 am ---Akila : its something like 34X27 mm at middle tapering to 18 mm tips (original taper) and then there is secondray taper something like 18 cm from each tip down to 11 mm nocks.  The ash has SG around 0.85. Hope it helps.

Hrotgar : when I lay this out I start making bow perfectly symetrical and with alot of more wood then needed. That assures that I have to actually struggle to get the weight down, rather than ending underweight. As I tiler I observe properties of limbs and chose the one with weaker wood as upper. Then I position bowyers mark and arrowpass 1´´ up from geometricall middle of the lenght of the bow and adjust for slightly positive tiler at the end.

I have made 120# bow from the same wood, though with tiler not so nice.

Hello and thks for your replay.....i just wanna ask you something..again ;D...sorry for this... you say 34x27mm t middle.....you are refering to mid-limb or to the middle of the bw( at the handle)...and  im curiose whatt cros section do you chose for this type of wood???  you make that clasic D shape..or  you make the belly wider???thks again for your help....i have some ash wood, and soon i wll start working on a bow like this....

Asiertxu:
Hey Jaro!!! >:D >:D >:D >:D 8)... ;) :D....

Thanks so much for repiyling mate!!!...REALLY glad to ear from you.

These two last bows you posted are EXCELLENT!!..NO DOUBT!!... ;) :)...

Why do you like that last one best than the other two?..the tiller of this last bow looks like shoots better for flyght shooting because of  it´s slightly eliptical tiller shape I guess!!...Isn´t it Jaro?... 8) 8)..

Anyways I like all these ones!!... :)..

Cheers fellow and keep us updated.

Asier.   

sagitarius boemoru:
Akila the dimensions provided are at the handle - which means roughly middle of the bow.All those bows are oval, slightly more rounded on belly than back and somehow more flattish than if made out of yew.
