80" White Elm Warbow Build-along
Ian.:
I'm not questioning your integrity, take my scepticism as compliment. With a second LRF you can't argue and I don't think you'd get much wrong in a few paces. Well done!
Cameroo:
Here are a couple frames from the video. At some point I would like to get some high resolution full draw pics, but for now this is the best I've got.
leehongyi:
great work!
what's the thickness taper of this bow? and the mass?
Cameroo:
Thanks Leehongyi.
The starting dimensions are listed in the first post. After tillering, it ended up 1.09" thick and 1.55" wide at the center, and the tips are approximately 0.65" round. The front profile has a 4 in parallel section in the handle, and then straight taper to the tips. The cross section is more rectangular than most ELBs.
If I remember right, it was around 780 grams right off the tiller tree, but the finished mass is 804 grams, after the horn nocks and finish were applied.
leehongyi:
have you tested the speed?
