Ah! What a find....just a few weeks ago I got hold of some 18-20" long fish skin and did exactly the same thing not knowing this video existed. The skin comes alive with fish glue...just covering my bamboo recurve...

Thanks

Thanks i didn't know you could use a bathroom scale very cool

This is best method

Good stuff man 😎👍💯

Hi. Thanks for sharing this. May i ask , should the first coat of glue dry completely before adding the next coat ?

👎🏼👎🏼

Great bow. So question. Do you feel that a cable backed bow could give the same draw feel as a penobscot bow? Or does the extra limbs give release that tension to make it feel lighter than it actually is?

Thats crazy because up here in Canada 🇨🇦 the Red Oak is terrible it has air pockets the size of peas. Every board that had decent grain was terrible for strength

Thumb troll

What if you want to use snake skin on belts/shoes? Do you need to prep the skin? Glue the skin on something first? Prep the area in a certain way?

What oil do you use to heat

When you bend the bow do you bend it against the grain

My favorite part is the strut acrossbthe street to piss the neighbors off. The supreme confidence that they(the neighbors) lack a penobscot bow of their own

Great info. Thank you bro.

I was given one of these skillets for a Christmas present a few years ago and no matter what i cook in it, it always sticks. Eggs stick whether making them scrambled or not. The only way i can get anything to not stick is if i use some Pam non stick cooking spray.

What would be the best way to wall mount one of these? I have one but not really sure, the slanted back horns force it away from the wall pretty far. I looked at the game and antler mounts but I’m not sure they will work either. I’m leaning toward a euro type.

So I should remove the scales from the skin? Thanks Randy

can it be skived or thinned?

Thank you for this! you're right I've watched a handful of videos and not a lot describe in depth what theyre doing when chasing the rings. Thnk you

I have acquired a skin from a diamond Python in Australia and want to put it on a guitar body ( it was killed by a train ) . Where can I find a tutorial to do this? it was already removed and is dry at the moment ! Thank you

Greetings, I know this video is old, but I just watched it and its a good one. Just over tillered my first bow (Ash Flatbow) draw weight just dropped, and am looking for tips, so I don't make the same mistakes twice. I will surely continue watching your content. Thanks.

Bravo pour votre arc, d'inspiration Turc, Mongol Asiatique. Des arcs pour tir à cheval. je fabrique en France des arcs cours pour tir à cheval. Mes arcs pesent 350 gr Maximum 400 gr, et pour longueur 95 cm et 110cm. Puissance 25_35 Lbs. des arcs pour moi et mapetite famille de Montpellier/France.

looks like an Elven Longbow from Lord of the Rings

I remember watching these videos way bk in 2012…mane you should start back making videos

How about an oak dowel? I wonder if that would work.

Great presentation. Thanks

That is like the staff of Moses.

That hog won't tear up any more acreage.

Will white oak work unable to get maple

How many pounds does that hog weigh

Great tip. Thanks. I always have some twist. Can I heat up a bamboo back IPE wood bow with ES-40 epoxy? Will the heat separate the two pieces of wood. I think your way of oil and dry heat will do. But steam might separate the bow?

I know this is an old video, but wanted to add a tip I've picked up from other woodworkers that might help in horn removal. Rather than just heating the tip, try adding drips of white vinegar into and around the seams where the horn meets the wood. The acids in vinegar can help dissolve the protein bonds from any glue and soften the horn while preserving the wood.

As I was about to self bow or mollegabet, I saw my board was poplar & checked this video.. oh well back to the drawing board

A close up of your fishing line twist string would be nice....!!🤔

Nice video! I especially benefited from your analysis of where the twist is and your process of manipulating the stave to best illustrate this. I think there’s where the experience and expertise shows. Simple (when knowing hands are at work!). Thank you for sharing.

How wood and bamboow lanth ,brait,hight yar

I just picked up an old longbow from an antique shop. Outdoor Sports Manufacturing Company made it. Can't wait to see your videos.

It's a Mi'kmaq compound bow not a penobscot, totally two different tribes. I'm Mi'kMaq, come from a reserve in northern Maine, though are people hail from Canada we are landlocked in the us. Great video, but just a tribute credit where credit is due and make sure you're telling history in the right way, especially when you're dealing with the native people.

May I suggest you refrain from thinking-out-loud when doing arithmetic calculations in your head?

I've never known anyone to shoot at a target that is in their garage. Nice bow, btw.

caera is too shaky and badly angled

I don't think it's shaky, I think it's never focused and it keeps trying so it is actually making me nauseus. Sir, your video has great info, but I'm hoping you would REALLY CONSIDER reshooting this WITH all the great info but without the camera ride from hell! (*I don't think it's shaky, I think it's never focused and so the camera keeps trying but it is constantly moving so - yeah - it is actually making me so nauseous I had to stop watching it and just listen. PLEASE! )

Safety glasses????

I just found you,, VERY IMPRESSED.

So you do a video a year? Come on now make us one more awesome bow! Your videos encouraged me to make a bow I cant remember what the name of the bow was but it was a flat bow. Make a 52 in recurve hickory bow with whatever backing at whatever weight it turns out? That would be great!!! Would love to watch that and see the outcome! I'm a subscriber to your channel so if you have a video similar to this let me no and thanks for the encouragement and great videos!!

Actually full grown bull pythons typically grow up to a medium size rat sometimes a really large ball pythons large rats

I for one prefer back quivers. It feels more natural to me to reach behind me to pull out. And that may be partially due to the fact that that's how I pretended doing it when I was younger.

Thanks for the info. Just found your channel. Looking forward to seeing more.

I have often wondered about fiberglass reinforced box tape as a bow backing.
