Only with your music!

I don't watch many bow making videos but make an exception for yours, they are always masterfully produced and informative.

Thanks Eric. I remember a long time ago on primitive archer a beginner posted about struggling to find staves. Without a beat you mailed them a stave and a gizmo for free. That made an impression on me and really set the tone about what kind of community this is

Tremendous fine bowyers work!!! And thanks so much for sharing your know-how with us! Regards from Germany

I just finished my first bow yesterday, granted it's not a piece of art, but it works, and that's good enough for me.

Beautiful bow. Thanks for sharing.

You are a truly skilled artisan! It's awesome to see your videos once again.

Your videos nourish my bow making passion and also act as a meditation. Another beautiful piece of art! Congrats!

Your videos are both beautiful and fascinatingly insightful. Thank you for your hard work. You're an inspiration.

Bows and guitar; perfect. 😄👍

Thank You for sharing your meditations & music , so blessed with the spirit of Artemis.

It is amazing how this process is so delicate!!! I also noticed that your cousin also released new music. You both are a great duet! Carry on!

Most bowyers don’t recommend it. Some woods can take it though. Personally I prefer to make sure the back of the bow is as unviolated as possible

I agree with you on that to

You are such an artist in both you bow making and making of your video. I love wood and making bows but wish I had just an ounce of your artistic flare.

You don’t need any of that. A basic bow, basically designed and tillered, and without any artwork- is still one of the most beautiful things

Great video man

I learned to choose the right kind of wood because regardless of how much i polish nor chip off the unnecessary excess, they will break sooner regardless how equally they bend.

Make those lower quality woods wider or longer. It is possible to make bows with low quality wood but you have to use a design fluent approach. See my video how to break a bow for tips with those woods

Fabulous video 🙂

Truly, the ART of tillering... Thx for sharing. Since I have not followed all your videos, by any chance, have you ever built a bow out of black locust and reflexed it the same way as this one?

@DanSantanaBows

I haven’t worked too much black locust, but someone gave me some more recently

Seems like every bow I build cracks when I recurve it I just fill with ca or epoxy or titbond whatever is handy and they don’t fail at the glue …….. so far lol If I gave up every crack I would never make a bow ! lol take care man thanks for sharing your knowledge

Do you hunt with your own bows?

@DanSantanaBows

Sure. I haven’t bought a bow since my first two

How long do you normally wait to start retillering after heat treatments?

@DanSantanaBows

Ай бұрын

I recommend the next day at least. Some do it as soon as the wood is cool, if you’re in a rush. I usually go a week since I am working on other projects anyway and like the wood to go back to equilibrium mc

@DanSantanaBows I normally wait a couple days as well depending on weather and where I'm working. I was just curious. That bow turned out great!!! I just finished a hop hornbeam bow that I used some techniques I learned from watching your videos. It came out nicely. Thank you.

You're so professional❤
