BowSlayer:
does anyone know of a crossbow buildalong were it shows how to make the bow? thanks

adb:
It's very difficult to make a wooden prod for a Xbow. That's the reason Xbow prods are  metal or FG. I've made a couple from rawhide backed yew, but it's not easy getting sufficient draw weight.

Thesquirrelslinger:
stick  a normal bow- #150 or so draw and it will work great ;)

NeolithicMan:
How were they made back when they were first around?

adb:
Composite. Sinew back, horn belly, wood core.
