Go to Stickbow.com and look for George Tsoukalas and Ephtapha...both have great websites...at present, I don't have their web addresses, but will provide them for you later if you can't locate them via stickbow.  Just let me know.

in the how to there is a piece called "Tim Baker First bow."  start here and when you make a bow that shoots first time you can move on to bigger and better things.

Go Here.    Click on Ferret's Board Bow Instructions in the Bowmaking Tutorials Section on the top left of the front page.  Have fun.  Post a buildalong please.

I recommend that you pickup the Bowyers bibles (all of them), as well as visiting the sites listed above.  The books are an invaluable resource and provide you with alot of info at your fingertip, no logging on required.  Tim

Watch out.... One bow turns in to many....I finished off a Red Oak bow that came out lighter then I wanted, But my one brother-in-law likes it, no real lose... Anyway... take your time when scraping the limbs when Your tillering, go to much and You'll miss your weight....pull to much weight pass Your draw and the same will happen...The best think about Tradgang, is the Help... So by all means Post your build along... AND....Have Fun...
