¡ñ Foam Paint Brush
What you will Need
¡ñ Drill
¡ñ 1/4 Drill Bit
Items Needed:
Mitre Saw
JigSaw
Sander
Wood
Step 1
For the Riser. The
measurements are 4x4cm
and, the length should be
35cm.
There is no template for the
riser; you will have to draw it
by sight. Cut the edges to an
angle that you Prefer, and
then sand them. Until it¡¯s
smooth.
Riser
Items Needed:
Wood
Mitre Saw
Chisel
Drill
Step 2
The Limbs should be 7 mm
thick, and 6.5cm wide.. The
Length should be 28cm long.
I used Hemlock, but you can
use any of the types I listed,
Sand until smooth.
Measure about 1 inch down
from the end of the Wood.
Chisel about .5 cm into the
wood. This groove is where
the string is going to be
strung.
Limbs
Step 3
This is the fun part! This is
where you can get as
creative as you want.
Staining or painting your bow
does not affect the Finished
project. I choose to stain my
bow. I used a Foam Paint
Brush, and Put Two layers of
stain on the wood. So have
fun creating your design
Staining
Items Needed:
Stain
Foam Paint Brush/Cloth
Items Needed:
Varnish
Foam Paint Brush
Hand Sander
Step 4
To Varnish the wood you need a
Foam Paint brush. Start by
spreading a Thin layer of
varnish, You will need to do one
side at a time (This will require
Patience). After every layer
sanding will be required. You
need at least Four Layers of
Varnish on the wood.
WARNING:
Don¡¯t put the varnish on too thick
Don¡¯t over sand. As this will
cause the varnish to come off
Varnishing the bow
Items Needed:
Limbs
Riser
Nuts and Bolts
String.
Step 5
The limbs are placed on top of
the riser. Where you created
your desired angle. Push the
bolts into the holes in the limbs,
and riser. Secure them with a
nut. Using a Screwdriver tighten
the bolts so your limbs won¡¯t
move around. Make sure that
they are very secure.
WARNING:
1. Watch your wood, so it doesn't
crack.
Putting the Bow Together
Items Needed:
Limbs
Riser
Nuts and Bolts
String.
Step 5
Continued...
Now the string is the tricky part. This took
me a while to put on. I bought a 60 inch
string, but if I were to do it again; I would
recommend a 58 inch string. Here is the
instructions to make your own string:
Tie Two loops in your string. From the end
of one loop to the other it should be 58
inches. The Loop should be very tight so
that when you push it down it will seat in
the groove. If the string is too long twist
the string and it will become shorter. This
is the hard part. The string needs to be
tight! You may require someone to help
you.
Putting the Bow Together
Items Needed:
Your new Bow!
Arrows
Target
Step 6
You're Done Congratulations!
You can now shoot your bow!
Test it out! See how far it
throws! Most of all Have Fun
and be safe!!
Shoot your bow!
