I've done the board bow thing a couple of times so I wanted to spice this one up a little.
The centershot shelf should widen the range of arrows I can shoot, a good thing since I'm about to begin making some arrows from dowels and lumber.
This bow's 71" ntn, 1 1/2" down to 3/4", with a 12" riser of palm and basswood. I'm going for 40# at 26".
Thats an interesting piece of dark wood in your handle. Good luck,
Mike
I really like the palm riser. Where did you get it?
The palm wood came from my time repairing Indonesian imported furniture. It had been a bench but it arrived broken so I got the pieces. It's very hard.
Do you happen to know what species of palm it is from?
No, I don't.
looks very cool, hope it turns out the way you want it too
show your tills!!
I like it!! Looking forward to some finished pics.
Where is the bow?
I haven't tillered this one yet. I'm hoping to get a Shinto rasp and wanted to use it on this bow. I'll post pics, I promise.
