    which server jig are you using? also did you make your own string jig? It looks beautiful.

    Thank you. My previous attempts at nock marking have been a mess. Watched your video twice and then step by step as I tied and the results were incredible. I have done my string and my sons and I am sure I can do even better with a bit more practice. This Aussie archer is happy I found you.

    Any reason you served second loop other way around and switched direction for just string part of serving? First loop right to left, second left to right.

    Hey Evan thanks for posting the video. This is my favourite way of making the transition as there’s no double serving under the limbs and it looks really good. Only problem that I tend to have is after longer use on transition and main loop serving tend to slide down and expose a bit of main material. Would you happen to know why is that happening? Maybe I’m serving it to tightly or not tightly enough?

  • @chrisevansgarden
    @chrisevansgarden4 жыл бұрын

    I had the same trouble to start with. I think it's as the loops expand they just prise the serving open doesn't seem to matter how tight you serve it still happens. I have found a way to combat this but I'm afraid it's a trade secret!!

    Why do you use fire, not glue?

  • @d0nb3x
    @d0nb3x4 жыл бұрын

    There are different schools of thought in this regard, but from what I understand most glues would harden, which you don't want in a high stress place like the knocking points. Furthermore, it might shatter and the shards might damage the string (again, that's how it's been explained to me... I have no direct experience of this). Some people like to use hot glue instead, but you still need fire or some other source of heat to melt it. Melting the ends of the thread is a quick and easy way to prevent the nocking points from unravelling (and my own preferred method), but I personally don't bother trying to melt the whole nocking point like in the video. Note that for this to work you need to use some slow melting thread, like nylon (which is what BCY nocking point thread is made of). In my experience polyester burns way too quickly, and of course natural fibres like cotton don't melt...

    nice job but that's the problem with all continous loop bowstrings. they are the weakest at the loop where it counts. they use half the strands unlike Flemish twist that uses full strands at loops.

    i am new to the subject and have been watching multiple videos, i had the same thought that you used. why not mark your end loops with a pen or marker, but i was sitting there, would that have any side effect or lead to any altercations with the string?

    Hi, great video, very instructional. Relaxing too :) I'm sure I'll be referring to it when I start making my own strings. When you add twists to the string as you close the loops up @3:35 you seem to be turning something off camera. Do you have some kind of tool for adding the twists and holding them in place? Thanks.
