as far as i know pvc and plastic like materials can not be stricked with epoxy.

epoxy can't hold them.

how does this worked out? or worked out?

That is a nice job of making a bow from materials that you have available to you.  I really like your home made drum sander, too.  You sure get good results sanding and shaping with it.
Congratulations on your bow; how does it shoot?

Very nice and very refreshing  to see "old school" hand tools being used. I've always enjoyed using chisels, hand planes and such. I like your drum sander, lot of ingenuity shown in this build. Keep us posted on the results.
