I am starting a board bow soon. What is a good DVD or book for instructions? Thank you.
Have you read the Traditional Bowyers Bible series? It great information, not all directed at board bow and bamboo backing, (although some chapters are).
But it will give you the big picture of designing and building a successful wood bow.
I've also heard alot of people recommend Dean Torges' Hunting the Bamboo Backed Bow. I haven't read it but it's reputed to be excellent also.
I'm not sure what you mean by "bamboo board bow" but here are good resources for lumber board bows.
Traditional Bowyer's Bible Volume 2, Chapter 2: "Bows from Boards"; by Tim Baker.

If you are going to make a bamboo back composite bow, there is no better resource than "Hunting the Bamboo Back Bow" DVD by Dean Torges (bowyersedge.com)

I thought maybe he meant a 'board, of bamboo flooring? Either way, you guys got it covered pretty well.
