Starting about 7 minutes 15 seconds in Robin takes a young archer to learn how long bows and arrows were made.
They spend most of the lesson time on arrows and explaining the importance of arrow spine.

Though some here might enjoy it even if they already know all this.

I always liked that TV show. Rare to find actual archery info discussed on tv

That was probably the most concise bowyery info-dump in existence on video for several decades.
