5 piece folding bamboo bows
Hamish:
Pretty darn cool. That's the only type of hinge you want to see on a bow.
What sort of boo are you using Dave?

Thanks hamish! It’s mosso bamboo pole. I get it from a distributor in Toronto. So
Times I get it early and he saves the larger diameter ones for me. 5” diameter or larger are best. It give the least amount of crown.

that's really something ! great craftmanship as always!
the narrow hinge would make me a little nervous tough

Thanks GlisGlis! Ya I wondered about that too. I used the thicker rawhide and it reassured me a bit more. I put about 150 shots through both of them now and still rock solid and no apparent strain on the hinge. The wrap is what holds it together.
Badger:
Wow, this is the most impressed I have been in a long time, certainly in the top 5 of things I have seen in archery innovation. You are really onto something big here.
