Making a primitve recurve bow with hand tools. This was my second attempt at building 5-curve self bow. Previously the stave I used (ash) hasn't held the shape I was aiming for. But this time I managed to get it done. Find out how, watching this video!
To complete this woodworking project I used red oak stave. This wood is known for the ease of bending with the use of steam. For a traditional bowyer, it's a very useful feature, as almost each stave has to be bent one way or another.
I was surprised by the result of this project. The bow shoots very smooth and quite fast for its draw weight (35# @ 27"). For finishing touches I used water based varnish, for handle stamped leather.
Hope you will enjoy 10 minutes of traditional woodworking included in this video. If you have any ideas or suggestions for my future videos, feel free to share them in the comments. All the best guys!
