PVC Crossbow X-Bow Trigger Mechanism (Pt. 2/2)! TKOR Finishes Our Homemade Crossbow Build Project

Today we're finishing up our crossbow by adding a trigger mechanism and an arrow, and putting it to the test! Stuck figuring out how to build a homemade crossbow? Don’t know how to make the proper and safe crossbow modifications? Building one of these DIY crossbows can be meticulous and super confusing! Here’s everything you need to know about building a DIY cross bow! In this video we're making a homemade crossbow from items you can find around the house or at a local hardware store. TKOR shows you how to build a fully-functioning crossbow with the best modifications. In this video we're taking a look at all the parts we'll need, and running through the more complicated assembly components. Have a look and learn the best tips for how to build a crossbow.
This unique homemade bow project has been a fun little project and King Of Random loved every moment of it! This is perfect for those wanting to know how to build a cross bow, how to make a bow normally, how to construct a DIY crossbow, crossbow making skills, PVC crossbow, homemade crossbow easy, or a cool science project.
If you want to try something new and creative or an activity such as: DIY bow and arrows, custom builds, science experiment, how to make a crossbow kit, amazing inventions, archery custom builds...watch the video to learn more. This is a perfect weekend project guaranteed to give you loads of fun!

You should use rubber stoppers or corks for the arrow tips. You could also glue nerf darts to them.

Hollow the Darts and fill them with gunpowder and attach a impact sensitive tip so the darts explode

[@dumb445]

I feel like the initial force would set that off maybe

[@Vinnay94]

Linxy They are called bolts, not darts.

[@therichboy1012]

Try using the bent pvcs in front of the bow to make a mold and cast them with aluminum!!

[@elipollack6057]

TheRichBoy 101 you are a genius

[@JustinTopp]

Love the videos. You should try to make explosive bolts by sticking an adult found snap fire work or something like that.

[@atomicrevenger4745]

Holy Norm Abram!!! You should NEVER wear gloves when wood working. If the gloves get caught in the bit or blade it will drag your hand into to it!!! Plus a jigsaw when you have a drill press. Use a mortising bit.

[@kendallchaos]

atomicrevenger those are tear away gloves so if they snag they rip right away (we use them at my work for sanding or drilling since normal gloves do what you mentioned)

[@bearclaw5764]

Thank you so so so so so so so much I have been trying to find help with building a crossbow and the 2 videos really helped. Again thank you so much.

[@aidanyelsma7762]

When I was a kid, I built a crossbow very similar to this with my dad, but we just used it to shoot rocks at trees.

[@damnlemons5331]

how do you shoot rocks with a crossbow? a stick would be easier to use as projectile but effective in not always fun

[@aidanyelsma7762]

iareBirdie there was a little chamber that I would set the rocks in. It was basically a glorified slingshot

[@martinedelius]

Just a quick comment, you shouldn't really use gloves when drilling (or using a lathe). If your glove gets caught in the drill, it will take your hand with it. :(

[@donovanmorgan7944]

Martin Edelius not if they are just cheap plastic gloves.

[@ggstudios8225]

Yea it will just rip of your rubber gloves

[@aita_sageblood3965]

Nice job dude; Happy New Year Everybody! Say....to welcome in the new year; how about you make and shoot crossbow bolts that are sparklers or are on fire? Y'know like those seen in Skyrim! :)

[@malvinchau2056]

Shadewalker 13 yeah! (ummm...I just started playing skyrim :P I am pretty much addicted to it XD)

[@thekillingamer4736]

There's no sparkler bolt or arrows inless you mean the sunburst arrows or the exploding bolt

[@NickHorvath]

When using forstner bits you should use a scrap piece of wood on your drill press. It prevents chip out on the exit side of the hole (you had some really big chips) and also lets you finish the hole without damaging anything.

[@BuildStuffwithAJ]

Awesome end product! It turned out pretty cool. It may not be as powerful as a store bought cross bow but its pretty cool you can make it out cheap material.

[@bonielsen8001]

Drilling straight into a dowel is best done on a lathe, but you can stick the dowel in the drillpress as the rotating part and have the drill beneath as just clamped in a vice. That way youll have clear indication of center as you drill. You can make the trigger selfresetting pretty easily with a small spring behind the trigger.

[@erinfogerty3843]

You have the aim of a Stormtrooper! :D :D :D Great father/son project. Thank you for sharing!

When you pointed out you hit the spot where you'd already hit reminded me of this. When I took the course to get my Ohio Concealed Handgun License in 2012. At the live fire range, we only loaded 5 rounds. I have a 1911 45 acp handgun. We fired at 25 feet at a sheet of 8-1/2 x 11 inch piece of paper with a black circle in the middle. After firing my 5 shots, there were only four holes within a 3 inch circle around the black target spot. I was scolded for missing the paper. After a close inspection, I told the instructor to take a closer look at one hole, it wasn't round but slightly oval shaped. Turns out I didn't miss the paper but put a second round through same spot. He laughed and said he was sorry he scolded me!

Can you cool helium to make it a liquid and see what happens? I hear it flows against gravity

[@Karol-cj9fy]

Dogrimp 3 flows against gravity? Like, I know what you mean, but it isn't breaking the laws of physics, it's gravity that would make it happen, since air is more dense than helium and so gets pulled below it

[@jackmichael10]

It doesn't since you've cooled the helium so much the atoms are so tightly bunched together after condensing that they become denser than air so it would flow towards gravity but would float on water. I see your logic though but it doesn't make sense in terms of physics.

[@Fireworker2K]

jack michael It flows on water because it freezes the water

I want to know how many layers of cardboard that crossbow can go through

[@gundudeRAIM]

Kasper Fox it's not powerfull at all he need powerfull limbs , the pvc is too thin

[@AshTheBacon]

If you want to make a crossbow like this and make it stronger get a similar PVC that is much much thicker, or instead of building one primary bow and a secondary build two primary bows same length and join them to make a more rigid primary bow, now when you build it provide more tension in the string compared to what he did since you want more power

[@AshTheBacon]

If you do this it could go through many layers and could possibly have almost the same draw weight as a small compound bow so around 30+ pounds or more depending on your method of building it

[@kasper7574]
