Primitive Archer

OK, so this might be a common problem, maybe not.  My workshop was a single garage (17x10), it is full of household over-spill that can't be disposed of (junk), a workbench, and stacks of timber for various purposes - one of billets/short bow staves (less than 65" long), one of long-bow staves (65 to 80") one of carving timber.  The roof is low and only 6-feet off the floor and the rafters are full of skirting boards and other construction timbers.  I have no outdoor storage available.  How do you guys store your timber - any clever solutions I might be able to steal?

I know, I know, but my 'workspace' is also my timber store and I keep promising myself I will rationalise the timber store into "genuinely useful" timber and "might be useful one day" and then burn the "might be useful one day" pile, but each time I look at the burn-it pile I can't bring myself to do it.  The burn-it pile is now empty. Currently, I have less than 3-feet of space between my workbench and the stave-stack, I add 1/2 dozen staves to the pile each year but am building 2 or 3 bows per-year...

Oh a cooler attachment yes I hadn't thought of that!
I don't know about a build alone pattern, but if you Google "shave horse from 2x4's I bet you'll find the video I based this on. Basically, make the bench then make a "head" for the kind of work you do. You could make different heads, switch them fairly easily.

Any critic is welcome, just speak your mind.

I agree with you regarding right (upper limb). But the issue here is two fold. You noticed a spot where it appears weak mid limb but actually that spot is not hinge but a poor shaping attempt of me. What happened is that change in limb thickness is a bit abrupt in that area but not so it makes bow behave poorly. I completely forgot to correct this when I finished tillering and just proceeded to coat it with fat and beeswax so it was too late. Dumb of me, no need to mention it.
Second issue is indeed a bit stiffer inner half of limb. I tried to correct that area several times, but it just didn't had any effect. Since I am beginner I was afraid it would suddenly become too weak and since the drawing of bow is very smooth I decided to not bother with further.

And yes, I was going for a more elliptical tiller instead a part of circle. I guess it was more because it was deflexed already and that shape naturally appeared at drawing. Not sure if this is an error or these bows NEED to be circular.

All in all, this bow is the first successful one this year and in some areas it needed further work but considering difficulty of the sapling, how much it could be pushed further I wouldn't know.

I'm just starting to get the hang of indirect. Still seems a bit uncomfortable holding stick pinched between my knee but a six by six block to put my foot on helps.
