Title: Hello from Berkshire u.k.
Post by: Ruddy Darter on November 15, 2015, 06:12:23 am

Hello all at Primitive Archer,

I'm a little late introducing myself as I just spotted this section, my apologies for that.
I am more on the archery side of things than crafting and joined in the attempt to fix some problems with my bows that I have, with some success I'm happy to say. My persuit is the English warbow mainly, but I have an interest in all bow styles. I'm finding the making side of things scaringly addictive although I have only made a couple of laminates at present(and countless strings and arrows). I am eager to start a self bow of sorts whatever suits the first workable stave I can get hold of. :)
So I'm pretty much a greenhorn novice and finding a wealth of help and information here, for which I am greatful. 8)

Kind regards,


           Ruddy Darter

Welcome to PA. Ask questions, take pics of problems and successes and jump right in with both feet. We have quite a few members from the UK so one or more may be near you and could help first hand.

Thank you Mullet,

Too true, I've got a host of ideas now of projects I want to get going, first thing I need to learn how to make is more time so I can do them all  ;D
