Making a bow: Reflex/ Deflex Longbow

Building a longbow from start to finish using basic shop tools. This is the complete process using fiberglass and a variety of exotic and domestic woods to construct a bow that preforms well and is durable. This is a similar process to all custom and handmade traditional bows.

nice job I plan on building my first long bow soon. I liked the way you used the drimel tool to cut thru the glass, I wasn't sure how I was going to do that. Thanx, Rob L

Really really nice bow...my favorite...

I greatly admire the fact that you built your clamping form out of steel. That took a lot of work, patience and attention to detail. It shows in your final product. Very well done.
Your video is one of the more professional I have searched for. I say this as a retired tool and die maker.
I noticed you used a torque wrench for the final tightening. May I ask, how many foot pounds did you apply on the final tightening?

Keep up the fine work and stay safe.
