handles
« on: November 12, 2007, 03:09:19 pm »
Hi there I was wondering if anyone could give me a few links to making various handles, and how to make a, arrow shelf. I had quite a few bookmarked, but there was a computer .....error..and now they are lost to me.

This style of handle is one I use quite often. It makes for a nearly center shot bow and is not too much work to make



You can see here how the string tracks with this type of handle



Here is a shelf  for this type of handle

The depth is about 1 3/4" and thickness at the arrow pass is about 1"
