New Yew bow build along
mullet:
You made it look easy, Ian. I let my stave rock in the vice the same way. When I don't want it moving I bace the tip against my hip.
DC:
I put a prop under the tip.
poplar600:
Nice.
Also nice to see the growth ring thing put to bed.....hopefully
How do you work around knots on the back?
Strichev:
Nice video - too bad the stave was so perfect, it would be more educational to see the transformation of a knotty, twisted piece of yew. :P Just kidding, the video's great and the bow just seems just... perfect.
Growth rings not being chased? And I've almost gone blind from trying to follow a ring on my current bow!

As long as you don't take off loads in one go you'll be fine. On this bow they gradually taper off towards the tip, spaced an inch or so away from each other.
