I served my very first string with this video! thank you for taking the time to make it for us! now the bow I made all by myself is complete!
Brilliant work, you just made my day, thanks.
My B55, serving thead and tool arrived this morning. I shall have a go at this tomorrow and hopefully have a useable string for the weekend.
Thanks
Al
Have fun! Let me know how you get on.
Just served my string for 1st time, Thanks for clear explanation.Tony from Devon.
Glad it helped, if we can help with any other items please see www.richardheadlongbows.com Any help supporting the site is always welcome, so thanks for taking the time to comment.
Thanks for the video, I need to replace the centre serving on my flatbow string, your clear demonstration will be a great help.
Alway pleased when someone actually finds the video useful, thanks for letting me know.
Many thanks for this guide, one of the thing in my book of things to learn... Make my own strings.
Glad to help!
PERFECT DEMONSTRATION SIR!
thanks for that as my serving tool did not come with instructions... but you not only saved the day but explained the extra mile of how to start and finish a serving :-)
v. well done.
You have made my day, we get so little response on the videos that sometimes I wonder if they are worth making! If you feel like helping me out then please like and share the videos, thanks.
Very good! Doubts finished after this great video. Thanks Richard!
Glad we could help, thanks for liking and subscribing.
No instructions came with my serving tool so this helped confirm what I had figured out for myself. Also made a couple of other things clearer than the written instructions I was going to follow.
Hi Mark, yes, that has always puzzled us too, we have been selling these things for years and they don't seem to come with comprehensive instructions, we are glad the video helped, thanks for subscribing to our channel, we really appreciate it and the kind words.

Thanks for your great video tutorial. I bought a BCY model 26 serving tool to serve the ends of my Wind-on Fishing Leaders. Now I know how to set it up and use it properly. Thanks.
Glad it helped.
Just served my first string using your video. Thank you for making it simple and easy to understand! Really happy how it turned out! Kia Ora and Ka Pai from New Zealand!
Glad it helped!
Very use. You make it look ridiculously easy.
Thanks, just lots practice, its no that hard.
You Brits are brilliant. Fish and chips, and the Beatles
Thanks, appreciate the thought, are you a Longbow Archer?
Not to forget, Benny Hill, Dr Who an The Ford Escort!
Thank you, that was an excellent tutorial. I will simply follow along when I have to serve a string.
Brilliant.
thanks
Hey thank you for the tutorial really helpfull and easy to understand.
welcome, thanks for the sub
Thank you this helps so much. The other videos make it seem so much more difficult and don't show how to start it, or even a tutorial of the tool.
Thanks for the kind words, glad I could help!
thanks! very good video.
Thank you for the kind words and subscribing, much appreciated.
Thanks! Very instructional.

Thank you! Great video 👍
Our pleasure!
Excellently done
Thanks
Thank you for this.
No worries Daz
Great video. Thanks!
You're welcome!
Did my first serving! thanks to you Richard :-) Most pleased and will practice mine again as you get a great finish!
I can't begin to think how you'd do it without a serving tool , and the end splice took a couple of tries to get right, over-under etc. but it worked.
How did you get to know all this art Richard from being a quantity surveyor? Perhaps another apprentice vid. from you're time till nowadays including, of which I'm sure I've seen, Philip's tutoring??
Many thanks again.
Great job!
Can save on serving string wastage if you do not cut it at the end but pull out a bigger loop to turn backwards, with the string still on the tool. Then after pulling tight cut the string and have no waste.
Nice!
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
Same principal for a compound bow?
Thanks for deminstrasion sir
No problem, glad you like it. Have you seen the bow making website www.howtomakealongbow.co.uk
Hello do u have some like foam spacer in that jig between the spool? I have same looking one but with plastic spacers and it feels like its switching the tension every minute
Hi, no, we have the normal plastic spacers, perhaps you need to practice more or maybe the tool hasnt `worn in` yet, it can take quiet a bit of practice to get the hang of it.
@@longbows yea mine is used only few times to it might need a worn in. Thank for reply have a good one
Perfect, thanks!
No worries, anything else you would like to see us cover in a video?
You have a lot of very interesting videos! I would love to see anything that has to do with bowmaking, as I am preparing to begin work on my first selfbow.
Cool, good luck!
Thank you!

Ok
just bought mine a week ago, but without kept loosening and wouldn't keep tension. I had to buy a washer to go under wingnut because it didn't come with one and now works great. it only came with 2 plastic washers and none for wingnut
Sorry to hear that, did you get it from us?
+Richard Head Longbows I bought it at sportsman warehouse .

what string are you using?

@@longbows thanks
How did they USED to do it before they invented the gauge???
They?
Archers ...how did archers and fletchers manage before fletching jigs and bracing gauges ?
OK, this vode is about a serving tool, for making Victorian bows strings, the tool would have been the same, jigs were the same etc.
Groundbreain
how to do it with hinges
I beg your pardon?
@@longbows loop service
how to do it?
Master server
Thanks!
Why don't you start like all others do? Which is leaving a longer end (about 10") wich you wind over about 10 times, then lift that long end and put it backwards again, start serving again for about 10 windings and then take you loose long end and pull tight, before you go serving the rest? So, you dont have a firm fix at the start sir
After doing it this way since the 60s I am unlikely to change.
@@longbows hehe, great answer :)
I know this is four years old but *stop moving the camera when you thread that sucker*! Thanks for the video, all the same.
Thanks for the advice
@@longbows I was trying to thread mine (very similar) and the jump cuts were happening JUST when I was about to get it! LOL.
Did you follow the arrows that are on the jig?
