Instruction
1
As a basis for work, use ordinary fiberglass ski. Fiberglass is a suitable material for the arcs of the bow, as it has good elasticity and does not break on bending. The middle part of the bow make from wood.
2
Before you start to pick up a wooden blank, create the stencil in full size for profile wood part of the future Luke. Stencil make that rod passed along the grain of the wood and contained a smooth bundle of longitudinal fibers with a thickness of a few centimeters. The length of the handle calculates in accordance with the standards of the lengths of different sports bows, selecting the most appropriate.
3
The handle made of wood needs to be comfortable, and you have to think in advance the angle of the shoulders of the bowthat affect the strength and speed of the shot. Finish on the stencil all the necessary convexity and concavity, which are subsequently cut on the wooden bar.
4
Picking up the wood stick center bow – choose affordable and durable material. Suitable to handle dry, wide Board made of birch or pine, treated with plane. The Board should not have knots, cracks, severe bends in the fiber and other defects. Place the stencil on the Board and circle it along the contour.
5
Start to separate the excess with the jigsaw and handsaw, and then modify the outline and sand the with sandpaper cuts. With the right side cut of the sighting frame of the boom. To round the corners of the handle and rounded edges that forms a side of a bowstring right angle between the shelf for the arrows and the wall of the sighting frame.
6
After the middle of the bow is formed, hacksaw sawed skisto make the shoulders for a bow the right length. Fix the shoulders on the handle with clamps, and determine their angle of inclination. It is also possible shoulders need to be shortened.
7
Strengthen the shoulders of fiberglass on the handle, using wooden screws with washers. Pull on his string of nylon cord with a thickness of 2 mm and try to shoot from a bow. After you pristrelite it, start finishing, thoroughly sand the handle and Polish it, cover with varnish or protective impregnation.
8
Don't forget to make plenty of arrows from the quality of the arrow the strength and accuracy of the shot depends not less than the quality of the bow. In the manufacture of arrows, keep in mind that the tip needs to be aerodynamic, durable and safe.
9
The shaft of the boom pick with a circular cross section and, if necessary, Polish it to perfect smoothness. It is best to choose birch slats or boards for the manufacture of the shaft of arrows. Square rails round a sharp plane, and then grind with fine emery paper.
10
Shape the arrow shaft with a recess for the fingers and the groove for the string. The groove for the string needs to be deep enough and smooth to the boom is not slipping at the moment of shooting, and that the groove does not fray the string.
11
The shaft can be coated with a protective impregnation for wood, and it is necessary to mark. Empennage with stabilizer for arrows can be made from a double layer of tape.
