This is my second bow of this type. Here's some more finished bow pics with handle pegs and wrapping. I used a porcupine quill instead of roofing nail pin in levers. I forgot to mention the belly of this bow was heat treated. No backing or glues. I mixed a yellow and brown stain and got this kind of green yellowish brown! Again there are no bolts or metal pins in this Alaskan style take down bow. The longest piece of this red oak bow is 31". It pulls 68 lbs @ 31" and is 72" ntn. Total cost of wood from Lowe's was 17.00 dollars It takes about 8 minutes to assemble the four pieces. This is a fast high performance take down anyone can build!
Give it a try. cheers fiddler49
