Title: Holmegaard Bow sketched plan (side & top) with dimensions needed please!
Post by: Gary Mac on February 25, 2011, 10:48:01 pm

Can anyone furnish me with a full sketched plan with dimensions (side view & top view) of a Holmegaard bow please.

I am fine with cutting and shaping wood but . . . . Not to good at understanding written dimensions.
if anyone has a proper plan I can print out I would really appreciate it.

Much easier if I can see this in a scaled down drawing so that I can draw it out on the wood for cutting.

Thanks

Would birch be a good material for a Molly?  I've currently got two halves of a birch trunk drying out in my shed - am going to try a pyramid bow (I'm thinking of Del's decrowned Meer Heath bow?) with one of them in the future but didn't know what to do with the other half.
