DIY take-down Bow

[@missymilburn2483]

I'm an Osage man, currently working on a cherokee style bow...I also have wine fermenting from following your elderberry video 3yrs ago..every batch turned out great, this year I blended elderberry with concord grape.

I've never heard of using an angled cut for the handle portions, is that necessary?

[@donaldporta]

that keeps it in register.

[@chanhnguyenha54]

I'm learning to do bow now. Can you please tell me the material you use to do the handle ?

[@donaldporta]

stainless steel tubing, auto body putty, and leather.

[@chanhnguyenha54]

@@donaldporta Thank you for your help

[@ttwil9810]

I would have pre soaked the wood with a penetrating epoxy to strengthen the wood
