Says a lot about a man willing to show the people how to make a jig, and string for that matter, while he sells strings himself. Kudos to you Sir and thank you for the information and all the great videos. God bless you.
I wish he would make and sell his bows again.
He has a model out now called the bones. Looks great and only $500
If you ever make another one, when sanding the curve into the dowel so the string doesn't slip, instead of sanding it by hand, put the dowel into your drill and spin it as you sand, that will make it more uniform.
Finished my first Stringamajig® today - Thank you for the dimensions. I used a 'leaf' from an antique table (we had sitting around) for the board. I love linseed oil for the finish. Someday I will try the gun oil, perhaps.
Just made mine, getting ready to try it
Great video! I was just thinking about making one of these, this helps so much!
Nice job looks good thank you.
Well done
Been watching this guy a lot. Made this jig and the tillering jig. Wont lie drilled 2/3's of my holes in the wrong spot on the first one . Love to be able to uplaod a photo. Well. Learning everythingi know on how to make a bow. Coodoos big dog...thx
I like to use hardened trim nails for the stationary pegs. They look like blued finish nails, but since they are hardened they don't bend easily. For the movable peg, I prefer a joist hanger nail. They are galvanized like a roofing nail, but the head is much smaller so I don't catch the string on it. They are also fatter than the trim nails, so they are harder to fumble around with.
You could put the dowels into a handheld drill and present the now spinning dowels to the also spinning sanding head for a nice uniform finish...just a thought
1:07 Now that's a cool pen!!!
Saw that.. already working on a pen blank with my lathe...
Cool tool.. just finished mine...
Found your Amazon store and picked up the cabinete scrapers. Needed 'em.
I dont see raw materials to use for making my own bow strings. I know you make them, but I really want to make my own. At least once. Your generous with your timee and knowledge, I just want to support the channel.
I use an endless loop but I'm interested in seeing your flemish twist
Thanks man, you go a little fast but I subscribed because you are definitely the best bow channel
I wonder if golf tees would work for the pegs?
Have you ever considered using 3d printing to make a jig or dowel or would it not be strong enough?
Can I add more sheet rock tap to increase the draw weight
distance from 1 of the top 2 pins to the top central pin is not 5". It's the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the other 2 sides 5" & (1 7/8" / 2 = 0.9375"). So it's 5.09" (I think). So if you want 'nice' (2x24) + (2x5) 6, 7 8 etc. you need to work out the exact hole centers.
What is really cool is that you can use that jig to play Cribbage with when you are not making strings.
I'm just glueing in my pegs following this guide and I've run into a minor snag of my board not staying strong at the 8 close together pegs but I did get a 1'x3' hobby board of red oak so I have another section if the pegs don't hold. I guess my bit was dull or the wood was weak, idk but if it works it works
Had the same prob. I filled with glue and let it set a little. Then lined up the pegs and genly sattle taped them down . Worked great for me .
Kramer I followed your directions here and made a jig like this one. Mine is a little fancier though as I have a CNC router and made mine with that. What I'm confused about is how do you determine the string length? There is no mention of how long a string you will get when adjusting that peg in the center. I know that for every hole you move the peg you are getting a string one inch longer or shorter, but how long of a string would I get if I used the peg hole closest to the two roles of nails? Thanks for the video and the jig. I can't wait to try it out, but have no idea right now where to put that center peg on the jig.
Hello do you have a tamplet on the Bowstringjig
hello can you send me a document on all the hoals on the bowstring jig
I made this over the weekend... I'm not sure what I missed, but none of the math works out. I think I missed something in the vague instruction "Up to 22"".
If you would put out an accompanying diagram it would help. I now have to make a new one.
Very cool, you could have used my drill press 😁
What size is the dowls
Did you really just use a drill press to sand with but not to drill the holes.... 😂 sorry, couldn't resist...
Anyways, thanks for the really useful info.... with the jig, not so much shop 101😂😂😂😂 have a good one!
Can you share the blueprints?
Hey Kramer, did you use 1/4” dowels for all your pegs? Thanks!
Looked like 3/8 to me . Its what i used and it worked out perfectly.
1/4" works nicely. To me, 3/8" dowel was too large diameter. 5/16" would work well too. It's up to you, I think.
Am I missing something. I thought that on a long bow it is tip to tip minus 3”, and 4” for a Recurve. Are the measurements on the jig actual string lengths or bow lengths. Are they for Recurve or long bow.
Good question. Lets hope he answers that .
.....waiting...
@@ozziejim8472 What he told me was if you've got the old string get the same size string that came with the bow.
Golf tee would be easier
PPE gear buddy... safety glasses and mask if a good idea some times :)
Trash.
Drill press has a depth gage. Just saying
Cool vid ! Anybody build this ?
I did. Works well
Yup. Finised mine this evening sir. With my own lil twist to it . Looks great
hey why don't you email me because I may have something for you. "Possibly" I do really like your bows and videos. I am a retired woodworker.
2:58 nail and dowel pin in same location make different size.string go AROUND bigger dowel pin well ok you use inches its not acurate LOL dont need be so acurate you end just twisting string anyway LOL
Couldn't follow you. Next time please make all measurements from the same end or same hole or edge. Its called a "datum". Its more organized and accurate. I spotted you a few years ago, your enthusyasm has not changed -keep up the good work and many thanks.
