Burying the bow stave in wet sand and then building a fire on top, genius! I'm really enjoying your videos Mr. Stefanov, thank you for taking the time to make and post them!
the Korean archers leave the mulberry wood, hot bent, leave it for 3 months to dry. They use,as I think you know,the mulberry wood at the ends of the bows they do. I think the drying time you gave your bow is about the same, so the wood stays as stable as possible. With much consideration! Good luck with that.
For some reason watching that guy split that log with his ax reminded me that the other day I split a stone slab to a smaller size that I needed using just a chisel and a hammer. It was magical and kind of miraculous how I was tapping back and forth across the line where I needed the slab to split, and suddenly, it fractured right off perfectly. It was very satisfying, and I enjoyed the whole experience very much. And....I never want to do it again. ;-)
STILIYAN!!! YOU MAKE GREAT VIDEOS. THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE. I AM AN AMERICAN BOWYER, BUT NOT AS EXPERIENCED AS YOU . IN A FEW YEARS, I HOPE. MANY BOWS TO MAKE. I WILL RESPOND, IF YOUR VIDEOES ARE AROUND THEN. THANKS.
hello, you seem to be very skilled in ancient knowledge and crafts. i would appreciate a video on how to make split wood arrows,if you hve both the time and resources. Thank you.
@@StiliyanStefanov Hello Stiliyan, how did your ancestors make arrows ? I am really curious to know . Even if not a video , a written breakdown would be appreciated , Did they use saplings/shoots or split logs , which ever one they did ,what was the process ?
Stiliyan Stefanov Awesome. The hadza bows have severe growth ring violation because the are complete round in profile. So you may want to leave the back flatish instead to prevent breaking. Good luck with this bow sinew backed bow :)
I have wanted to learn about African bows for a while, but have had a hard time finding good resources. Are there any resources you would recommend? Thank you for your time.
You have attained some sort of spiritual freedom man....just love your work
these are great videos, the best on youtube. Anyone giving his video's a thumb's down, knows nothing about bow making or art. Keep up the great work.
Thank you very much!
yes he does

One question: How long is wood dry? one, two or three years ???
You can using green wood and dry wood, no problem. Dry wood soaked 5-6 days, green wood just steaming and bend.
thank you, thank you !!!

Fish bladder glue!

Stiliyan Stefanov ,millbery
Mulberry
какое то время я думал вы американец😂🔥
Какво дърво използваш и колко време е сушено?
Черница ползвам суха, накисната във вода. Но по-добре да се работи на зелено.
Have you thought of making an african bow?
Yes! Someday.
Stiliyan Stefanov Awesome. The hadza bows have severe growth ring violation because the are complete round in profile. So you may want to leave the back flatish instead to prevent breaking. Good luck with this bow sinew backed bow :)
