I went back and got some American oak and sapelee mahogany and started again with the oak. I've almost got it tillered but I need to weave another string at about 64" to get the full brace height. Tell you what though, I'm having so much fun with it!! Hope you're keeping well mate👊🏽👊🏽 from Wakefield.

The Oak one I finished is about 66" and it's a good size. But I wouldn't mind dropping it down to about 63/64". I definitely need to do a full measure up when I finish work tomorrow, then start planning out the shape. The sapelee is super strong so I might be able to get away with making it a smaller profile all round and keep the strength 🤞🏽

Lift your Saw/File in the Return Stroke... You'll have less chance of Lifting a Splinter or Backing material. On a side note: You should look into Kangaroo Rawhide for Backing material. It's Heavenly!

    I like your no nosense approach to this subject. its not hard just takes patience to do it well, arrow and spear making is in a lot of ways more difficult. Ive been making bows since 73 my first bow was a black palm bow, I had a great mentor, an employee of my dad, a real sepic warrior. In 79 I learned how to make bamboo japanese bows from my sensei. My first employer, a greek guy taught me turkish skills. Archery has linked me to great people all accross the world , all my life. Ive always built heavy bows 60# + Ive probably made 30 bows since 73, I make them, use them, hunt with them, the last bow I made, and still have is a mongolian style horn bow at 80# I'm old now and enjoying my PSE compound, but I still shoot my horn bow for exercise keep up the great YTs I hope you in spire the next gen. of bowyers I have also developed skills with the sling, boomerang, and woomera. you should play with these, fun times

It was after a failed attempt with poplar, and it happened to turn out pretty good. 63" knock to knock, approx. 25-30 lb draw weight, sight window, arrow rest, polyester custom made bowstring, Rust-O-Leum rattle can paint job (matte blue/gloss black/gloss clear). All done using hand tools.

I made an excited mistake of getting pine, but I bought I 1x3 so the extra width will help support along with the rawhide. Thank you for keeping my head up straight, and when life pulled me back, you helped keep me moving forward. I’m now on the process of making two at once (yikes!) and I will do a short video after giving you credit. This morning I lost my mom, so the bows have a completely new meaning to me. ❤️ keep being awesome man, you’re doing great work

These additional tips on tillering will be most helpful. for the next try. It occurred to me that when you cut in the arrow rest, if you drilled a hole at the inside corner of the the rest it would accurately locate it and you would have a nicely rounded inside corner on the rest. Thanks again for your "user friendly" videos. They invite folks like me to begin building and have fun doing it.

    Dude that's a great idea and no one ever showed how you get the arrow rest measurements! That really helps.. only thing is after you put the rawhide on you didn't continue to explain the measurements and it was fast forward ⏩ . It shows you barking out and measuring sections on the raw hide and then cutting it but I don't know what those measurements are

    I'm just making one hell of a bow with oak and fiberglass, boy... the tilering part is not as fast as he shows here, it's been 1 week and still scraping wood... I may be doing something wrong though, cause the string does not pull as easy as he does during the tilering part. (Sorry for my english)

    I want to make a bow, like a serious bow, so I'm wondering if that dog bone was actually a good idea to place on the back of the bow. or if it was more of a joke and something else would be better.

    I just started a red oak bow after ordering the book from Clay Hayes. I learned 10 times as much from your video as I got from his book. I am just at the tillering point so I hope to end up with a good bow. Will be following you closely and will be looking for your tillering tool. Thanks for taking the time to record the long and tedious process of building a bow.

    Thanks for the video Kramer. I had requested this video a while back when you were asking for suggestions.

Now back to finish watching the video, great editing by the way!

    Hi Kramer, I have a bow very simular to the one you've made, slightly higher powndage but it was my third bow I built, still use it and as you said, it feels very comfortable to me. I have other bows, even expensive ones, but I still love taking my old one I made out for a shoot. It gives you a good sense of satisfaction in the fact your hitting the target with a home made bow costing a few pound, were others are struggling with a bow costing hundreds of pounds. Love the videos, stay safe from UK.
