NEW!
In this 16 page booklet you will learn how to make a bow in its simplest and most beautiful form…the self bow. I live in the northeast and so I will go over many different types of trees that I have used personally that thrive here and you will usually find all over the u.s.
Along with this booklet and the minimal of hand tools you will have the “know how” to help you build functional tools for shooting, hunting, or just learning primitive skills at your own pace. Included are some great tips that were passed on from some respected elders and family that I am sure will carry you far in your primitive bow making journey!
Here are some of the articles I cover…
•What woods does Michigan have to offer as bow woods?
•What do I look for in the stave "hunting" process?
•I have it home; now what do I do with it?
•What tools do I need?
•How does "greasing" the bow help it?
•I’m ready to make a rough outline of a bow, but what kind do I want to make?
•What measurements do I need to take to get a true custom fit bow?
•Now I have the measurements how do I relay them to the wood?
•What is floor tillered? And fistemele?
•How much wood do I remove?
•Which string nocks I prefer and why?
•What is the long string process?
•I have the bow bending, now what do I do? And what do I look for?
•How do I work the bow into the desired draw weight?
•Time to shoot the bow in! How do I do it?
•How do I finish the bow?
•How to get the most out of your new bow?
