Birth of a Bow - Building the Mybo Origin Compound Bow
A look at how the Mybo Origin compound bow is made. Designed and manufactured in Leicestershire, England, the Origin was released in January 2016 and in its first season came to dominate the UK target archery scene.

Can we appreciate how much merlin was daring to just share all the process? Well doneee
I purchased one of these a few days ago as I’m fortunate enough to live 30 minutes away from the Merlin store in Loughborough, England. I can’t believe how incredible this bow is, the draw cycle is ridiculously smooth, the valley and let off are just perfectly arranged. It’s difficult to explain unless you try it. I tried a few of the more expensive compounds from other manufacturers like Hoyt and PSE, but this beat them all hands down! Massive thanks to Ben and the team at Merlin!

Or the revolution
A large step forward than when I bought my bow in Nottinghamshire. Beautifully designed and produced. A credit to the team.
I've shot 2 Merlin bow models in the late 80's, and they were, at that time, very good and accurate bows !!! I also had the chance shooting many times with Chris, and after, Ben Jones at international events in France or in other countries during the 90's. They're very nice guys and good shooters. I'm happy to see they still are in the archery business and producing such nice bows. I hope this Origin will be a success. Dom
Fantastic video, very insightful to see how this bow is manufactured. Finally got round to trying one the other day & it truly is a fabulous bow to shoot, as soon as I fill my piggy bank I'll be getting one of these. Well done everyone involved in the making of this bow 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
Absolutely fascinating insight into manufacturing a bow that we would not normally see. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Nice that it seems to have alot of hand crafting to it; compared with others that seem to use mostly automation, hopefully be buying one next week; looking forward to it
Thank you. Next time I would love to hear the actual sounds of the process as well as some commentary about whats being done and why etc. Still very much enjoyed and appreciated.
what a wonderful piece, great craftsmanship, great images and great music all making a great bow.
High quality precision target bows. fantastic to learn and shoot
Pieces of art! The black/chrome one is absolute stunning...i want one!
They look like well made bows and good for the price. Seen a few in the flesh and might be tempted one day.
Just got in to Archery. My goal for this year is to build on my enthusiasm for the sport and become serious enough to upgrade my current bow to a Mybo Origin
BEAUTIFULLY MADE!
Mine is currently being made. I'm even more excited now...!

lots of petty comments as usual.hope the company does well,looks like a fantastic bow.nice to see something new on the market!
I bought an elite I while back. Is awesome. Solid and well balanced. It is pretty damn heavy though. I love it regardless
That reddy-gold colourway at 16:16 is beautiful! Still shooting my old Hunters Quest with the anodizing sandblasted off and hand polished riser, but if I could justify/afford a new bow.........
meus parabéns pelo trabalho top de mais cada detalhe impressionante mesmo seus arcos deve ser de ótima qualidade.. adoraria ganhar um desse de presente lindo mesmo continuem assim ......
Great music, great video.
OMG never even knew the UK were in the market for making compounds, would love to field test on if they are still in business. Thanks for showing! That fully machined riser looks very cool. What the the specs of this model?
All I can say is WOW!!! Please do a similar video for the elite recurve?
Elite and Bowtech have the cross cables on their cams now. I wonder who pioneered this cam design? Also the oversized one quarter of an inch axles? I find this fascinating also educational!!!!!!
5:20 - Why are the tops left sticking out of the top of the solution?

That stage isn't the anodising step itself, it looks like one of several cleaning stages prior to the anodising. Usually soft, dyed anodising on aluminium alloys have multiple cleaning stages beforehand, the actual anodic oxide film growth stage, then dyeing and sealing - the boiling water sealing baths you see part way through are out of sequence, those coming last.

Merlin have always made excellent equipment. My wife's XV from 2007 still going strong. The omega sight on my recurve still works perfectly after over 10 years of all weather use. Where others have fallen apart. Once you buy a Merlin Product you know your buying a quality product from an excellent company. Other manufacturers make their cams so thin (To gain speed) that I have seen them buckle. (Wafer thin cams) not good. Although I am not sponsored by Merlin, I have always favoured their equipment.
British craftsmanship at it's best. I wish I'd have bought one of these instead of the Hoyt Pro Comp Elite.

Good video showing the process of machining the parts. Looking how much machining there is and using blocks of aluminum I wondered if you had ever thought of having some sintered parts. Advantages include less final machining, more choice in the composition of material as it is mixed to the specs required and would probably cut the cost of production without compromising the quality.
@philippe94416

Sintered has higher tooling cost, for small batches, CNC is cheaper. We are not in the automotive industry.
E visto estas maquinas haciendo maravillas y siempre me e preguntado como recogen el lubricante y los residuos del material torneado.... A donde va todo eso?
awesome video
Absolutely great work! Congratulations
Are you guys going to be at the ATA Show in January?
EXCELENTE Vídeo , só precisa da uma olhada nos ganchos que são usados para a pinto pois os mesmo aso de arame e a maquina de usinagem apresenta estar empoeirada , ambas as criticas se melhoradas agregaram valor ao produto apresentado .
Can someone tell make what type of machine are those except the cnc machine please thank you ☺️
Excellence in the product, congratulations to ORIGIN. Excelente produto , parabens Origin,
Very nice looking bows i be very keen to shoot one of these bows very much so, Job well done
Is it how compound bow limbs are usually made? Seems too simple. Recurve bow limbs are consists of several layers and coatings. For the handle, seems like only shape and material has been decided and just machined until the end. For the recurve handle, I think they go through more complicated in order to reduce the vibration and mass. 100% machining is most easy and not always preferred. Is it cheaper mybo bow or is this how high end compound bows are made?
I really think you guys should make some that straight aluminum it looks so good maybe all aluminum body and black limbs aluminum cams that would look awesome
great video. But i assume the labor work (e.g. anodozing process) is done automatically.
Who designed this cam as the cables are a cross over? . I see more bow companies using this cam design.. Did mybo design this cam?
Looks like a well built quality bit of kit. You local British boys should be proud. Hope you can make it without "out sourcing" to China.

Bem, esporte em geral é caro, mas é uma belissima tecnologia. parabéns, seria o máximo um dia dar oportunidade de algum armador representá-los. Para ver como este equipamento se sai na mão de não profissional.
a (may be) stupid question: how come the complex pieces are not a cast and then machined? what is lost in the piece strength in the end??
That is quite something seeing that CNC machine in action. Is that just water being used as lubricant/coolant or something else? Cool video!
May i ask? Can it delivered to Asia country?,,how about the prosedural,,,to get some coumpound bow like this?

795 british pounds - thats about $1033.50, or so - - another $65 for a better string, or maybe it's just a spare - - how many strings does it take to strangle a deer after the arrows miss? Anyway, kind'a pricy, still, I'd LOVE to have one.

Great video. Could you please let me know who does the music?
What is this song? I'm gonna play this song for my kid at bedtime.
Would love an Black Edge with cherry red cams, limbs and strings
Beautiful. But you guys love screws too much ! You need toggle clamps on your drill jigs and a pallet system on your VMC, you will save so much time and hassle !
Seems to be pretty time-consuming and expensive to CNC it.. wouldn't casting be a better option?
@daddski1

Hi, not at all. The cnc is fast. Compared to the time it took to make the cast, cool the materials, then cut the cast off, clean it up, throw out all that had casting issues etc the cnc can make about three or four to one and the bow itself is a better bow. No chance of having potholes and places that are weak because of the casting process which can leave bubbles etc in the materials that you cannot see without the X-rays it's just a great way to do things. What you do not see here is the final price though lol. These are competition bows not hunting and for me its all about the hunt. My Bear Threat is great for that and I can competition with it as well. I am more worried about the limbs and the way the make them. Compared to other ways (see bear for how they make them) I think it would, in the end, be the downfall of this bow. I cannot see these limbs lasting beyond a matter of a year or two at the most before replacement. But then agian if you can afford the bow and are a competitor you probably change limbs twice a year or more and bows every season? Too rich for my blood. Hope this answered your question?

Plus side for CNC the aluminum alloy lingot is of slightly higher mechanical strength, than the alloys used for casting. Therefore stiffer and lighter is possible with CNC. Even better would be forging.

Agreed. The digitals are not more reliable and they can give a false sense of accuracy. They are easily knocked out of cal and unless you constantly triple check your measurements you will end up in trouble sooner or later. Mechanical are simply better. IF you have to rely on digital I think you lose something in the long run and you are allowing a machine to do your math which if that's what you need might mean you needed a different career in the first place. lol my opinion is all. take it or leave I'm weird too lol...
who is the musc done by? I think it's fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!
Great work
Okay maybe I should have watched the whole video before I commented cuz that one at the end looks amazing exactly what I said
Anyway i like see how this bow is built : workers look very professional

I agree, I have a 30 lbs.

Why not a casting or forging as source before the cnc seems like a lot of time machining awsy waste material

I heard that this way makes for a sturdier riser, because casting aluminium risks having air bubbles and imperfections that make it more likely for it to snap due to metal fatigue.
