Woodworking. Crossbow and Arrow.

One of the previous videos on how to make a diy bow , got a lot of feedback, and so we decided to make this project. For the manufacture of the crossbow, we used oak and ash. Of course, we are not professionals in the manufacture of crossbows, but with some woodworking skills, we did a good job in our opinion with this project. We glued the main crossbow from oak with dimensions of 90mm 65mm 800mm. We made the arms of the bow from oak lamellas, and the central part from ash. Ash is a more resilient and stronger wood than oak, so we used it in the central part. We used polyester string for the bow. For the manufacture of the arrow, we used a 9mm wooden base. This video was filmed for content on a KZbin channel and after being made, the crossbow was destroyed. The video is not a guide to making a crossbow, and we do not recommend repeating it. Thank you for watching.

Two things: First, while you built the skane lockbow trigger correctly, it isn't positioned or implemented correctly. the cutout should be perpendicular to the length of the stock, not angled, because the stock itself is the string catch. (it's recommended to round the corner of the cut though) consequently, the pin should be almost flush against the forward edge of the cutout, because the pin isn't there to hold the string, but to push it out of the cutout to fire the crossbow. that will allow the trigger to fire on squeezing the lever instead of pulling it away from the stock. Second, the bow itself isn't positioned properly in the stock. A crossbow prod should not be perpendicular to the stock. It should be angled slightly downward so that the arms of the bow rise a bit above the level of the top of the stock when strung. That will keep the string from dragging against the body of the stock. that eliminates severe power loss from friction and also prolongs the life of the string.

incredible craftsmanship! However, I would like to point out a few things about the crossbow design that will help it tremendously. Starting with the trigger as traditionally it is usually pushed instead of pulled giving it more of a natural feel and more accurate shot. The simplest way to do this is by making a groove for the string to sit in and having the trigger push the string out of the gap with a dowl. That way it feels much better when firing and you don't need to worry about the trigger resetting when loading. The crossbow's bow also has some room for improvement that you could easily change. I noticed the bend being off, which Is not horrible knowing you aren't an experienced bowmaker. If you taper the ends to about a quarter of an inch and give a few tiller adjustments, you could get a much smoother and more powerful shot while preserving the bow at the same time. All in all, I love the crossbow. And thanks for such incredible content!

Он распилил доску на дощечки и склеил их между собой, по сути собрав деревянную рессору. Но на видео попало далеко не все. Так что возможно я тоже что то не понял. Мы проще делали, из старой лыжи. Получались отличные плечи.

[@Lacas1976]

Hi I like the woodworking and finish, the strength isn't bad either. I am also a carpenter. unfortunately, I don't have half as good machines. What I didn't like was the trigger mechanism. The trigger mechanism works the other way around for you! The weapon should fire when the lever is pushed in, not when it is pulled out. This is not good at all, you can't aim with it. It's like shooting a firearm by pushing the trigger forward and not by pulling it But I see that the stock can be converted. hook the strink into the cut stock. The arm should press a pin that pushes the string up and it's done.

Just from looking at the thumbnail, I can see a major flaw in your design. You need to make the string attachments closer to the same plane that the bolt is on. You are losing power with that setup.

Its a nice crossbow, but……. Made in a workshop utilising machinery costing thousands. Very few people would have that kind of machinery in their workshop. It would have been more realistic if it had been made using hand tools and small power tools which is more likely what you would find in the average diy workshop.
