building 1st bow
« on: June 27, 2012, 07:32:00 PM »
building my first traditional self made bow. got it all drawn out and cut. jigsaw blade sucked. bent 2 of them. Wasn't sure what I was doing wrong. made a minor mistake on one of the limbs but hopefully sanding it down will not ruin the integrity of the bow. if so guess i will just have to go get another piece of red oak.

posting pics of my progress...

Check with the guys at the bowyers bench. They can probably give some pointers.
