Thank you for a very informative video series. You should be a " bow build lecturer " at archery university. First time seeing this exactly 5 years later to the day.
Do you sell your bows? I really this video series. Thank you for taking the time to show us how you do it. You also refer to plans. Where can i purchase the plans you are referring to. Thanks again Joel Oregon
Dave - Great series. Do the wood laminations need to have grain oriented correctly (straight) like in wood non-lamintated bow? or does that laminations with the fiberglass take care of that were grain does not matter as much?
i have fiberglassed a bow with 2 part apoxy and it just didnt seem right and after drying i left the bowq for about a week and i noticed the fiberglass was bubbling and with further examination i discovered that the apoxy resin was damp and tacky under neath the fiberglass any advice you can give would be greatfuly appreciated i am new to the fiberglass system i dont know if it is the fiberglass at issue or the apoxy the bow works but i does need a little reenforceing we do not seem to get the same quality of fiberglass i can only get the matting and not the thicker fiber yours truly jack boyd
sorry dave i didnt understand where the fiber glass should be. should they be in the outside of the laminated wood or inside?/ thanks awesome videos man
hi Id like to adapt you idea, though I am not in europe anymore. immigrated to brazil so have no knowledge about local trees I can use to make a bow like this, would you have any idea about what I could use here to make somethin thats draws be it around 50 pounds or so?
Did you mean the Purple heart was cut to 50 mil long ? The piece looked about a foot & 1/2 or 18" (inches long), maybe a bit more, but I thought 50 mil was short for 50 millimeters which I also thought was about 2" (inches) ? Re : (mark 14:45 minutes)

Looks very Thunderbolt / BowTec(ish). Very good, try some bamboo though, makes all the difference.

Re : (mark 14:45 minutes)
I meant to say 50cm
Hahahaha ........... of course , I should have figured that out :) lol :)
Do you need to use fiberglass
what's the difference in your Pilgrim and Regent other than type of wood used and do you make anything at 55# @ 28"?
+WV591 The only difference is the wood. I have made that type of bow up to 55lb and I am also working on sone 62inch bows that are up to 60lb
looked up the ea40 apoxy and the only way i could get it was a box of tins cost price £168.00
Hard Maple or soft?
+BRUSHWOLF2718 Hard Maple
Can't hear your voice
You think 5 mill is 5 millimeters.
