    Krammer!!Love your enthusiasm,,i have built 12 bows, bought as many.
    Two of my brand name bows,one 60# the other 55#,,, the same arrow,, the same speed!!
    The faster one has the thinner profile limbs,, like you said,, less mass.
    Im as intrigued as you are.
    Keep up the Awesome work my friend.
    Love your vids👍👍

    I would love to see you take one of those blanks and make it using more basic tools. Like what would a typical Joe Schmo have in the garage or shed. So no belt/drum sander but yes orbital hand held sander. That kind of thing. How few and how basic of tools can you use to get that bow blank to a working bow. That would also be a great test/promotion of the diy bow blank concept.

    I have a odd bow build request! Can you do your best to make a fusion between the more eastern recurve composite and a european style longbow? Would that just take the shape of a really long recurve? A longbow with composite materials? I dont know! But it seems neat inside my mind.

    Adding mass to the part that has to move the most is going to slow you down.
    If you start wider at the riser you can preserve the higher draw weight, introduce more taper, and have a faster bow that still has good manners when you loose.
    Then if you want to get fun…
    Introduce very narrow tips and reverse tiller them, make them thicker front to back, so they are rigid.
    Then you preserve string angle, reducing stack, so you can make the overall length the bow shorter. Shorter limbs, less mass, more speed…

    Hey there, I am about to attempt my first bow with some pin oak I got hold of. Just wondering since it's going to be a self bow whether it's ok to have the back of the tips a little wider rather than the front to work as tip overlies as I want to use the flat face of the log to make the bow and would rather not glue anything onto the back of the bow at all.

    @michaelbagley9116 ปีที่แล้ว

    Unless you are going for distance, a bow used in combat in primitive society or for small game does not need to be heavy in terms of poundage. A quicker bow would be more useful. After a 40-45 lb bow will very easily put an arrow through a human body or take small game like birds, shoats, small pigs, hares, or rabbits.

      have u seen the snake bow by arc rolan in France?
      all plastic shooting a max of 26 lb down through 20 and into 18 on the sixty inch adult version.
      being plastic they're considered virtually unbreakable particularly with putting the limbs into twist when stringing and de stringing without using a stringer.
      so maybe the best bow for learning on and even then one you'll likely go back to later on when you're shooting heavier or simply more expensive bows.

    Several other things you can do to make it faster and smoother , go to 1/2 inch tips, reduce tip overlay thickness and add more taper to the lams.. If you want even more speed, make the press so the tips are as forward as the back of the bow , it will get more twitchy then tho..

    • @jjw5165
      @jjw5165 ปีที่แล้ว

      The length of draw and length of arrow are determined by the length of you arms and chest. So your bow dose not need grate length if arrow is only 27 inches long. Probably no benefit to extra length. Poundage is by your strength.

  • @hibahprice6887

    • @hibahprice6887
      @hibahprice6887 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I mean, 60 m/s is the minimum level for a "light" arrow. The bow should be able to withstand shooting 17 gram arrows without kickback or breakage. This bow will produce 63-65 m/s and it is a regular bow with fiberglass, still without carbon.
