- £80/100$ bowyer. Become a Bowyer for less than £80/$100! My Bow Making Tool Kit. I've been asked what tools, aids and workspace I use to make my longbows. I show you the tools I currently use and how I started bow making for less than £80 / $100.
My initial bow making tool kit was similar to this. This is enough to make a finished longbow.
FOLDING SAW WOLVERINE HIGHLANDER £9
MACHETTE COLD STEEL PANGA XX £20
WOOD FLAT RASP 8" BACHO £12
CABINET SCRAPER KUNZ £6
TILE SAW GENERIC £9
SECOND USER DRAW KNIFE EBAY £20
Of course I have added many more tools and aids in the 18 months that I've been bow making - and I now have some covered workspace in which to work - but I want aspiring bowyers to know that it isn't expensive to build a tool kit that will get a beginner started.
I now also use a Gerber Bear Grylls Machette/Parang, Wickes tile and wood saw, Kendo rasps, Garlick Cabinet scrapers, a block plane, Silverline bench 6" & 8" woodworking vices, Silverline 200lbs hanging heavy duty scale, Mora splitting knife, spoke shave, Hitachi power drill and various items such as rulers, pencils and other aids found around the home.
Much of my kit and materials are readily available on eBay, Amazon and local DIY outlets.
Thank you for watching. Comments, likes, suggestions and subscriptions all very welcome.

Your accent and low tone helps put my daughter to sleep. I sit and watch your videos and my daughter sits in my lap by the 2 min mark she's out cold
i agree. Great tone and good knowledge
This guy could read a receipt out load and It would feel like a bed time story
excellent bows,excellent instruction,excellent movie making talent.thank yew mick.
+Gary Chynne Thanks again Gare. Greetings from France 🇫🇷
Quick tip. Spine of the saw can be used as a scraper. Also saw can be salvaged to cut out a scraper in desired shape, then sharpened to a square edge. The scraper also can be fashioned in to a wooden frame with handles to give more sraping power and comfort.
These videos are just amazing. Harvested my first hazel stave today as a result!
I enjoyed your video. I've not built bows in close to a decade because I've moved to a different country. I'm reminiscing
Thank you Mick for sharing your knowledge.
+Crajneel Chand Hi Raj, thanks for your great comment!
Excellent Series, Mick...Many thanks for your long hours and dedicated work - greatly appreciated! cheers, Matt
Hi there, delighted you enjoyed and I appreciate you letting me know. Mick
Another superb vid. Informative and captivating, I enjoyed it. Thank you
I really enjoy your videos I have only seen three of them so far and look forward to seeing all of your videos.
I am so glad that I found your channel.
I am getting into archery as my now hobby and making my own bow string and I have wanted to make my own bow and you explain how to start doing that so well.
Good luck!
Very nice video There was deffently a few tools i did not think of using
Such great advice and good ideas Mick . It was so much fun to go to boot sales while in England . A lot of bargains to be had . Your editing skills are awesome and your yard and garden are works of art . Thanks once again !
Thanks again! Mick
I was looking for something to do this summer with woodworking. Thanks to your video's I'm going to start making a longbow and if i like it maybe more! Thanks for the quality contend and step by step advice!
Hi Thijs, well that's good to hear! I wish you luck with your bow-making - I'm delighted to have made a little contribution toward your decision to have a go!! Mick
Great 'show and tell' on the tools of the Bowyers craft there. It is always a great revelation to offer people that an area of involvement need not always cost a fortune... That , sometimes more than anything else, can encourage people to have a go .
+DustyPilgrim1 Thank you! I do hope I stir a few folk to have a go! Thanks for watching, Mick
This is the highest quality Bowyer video I've seen on RUclips. Your care in making this video is refreshing! The information you've shared is invaluable. Thank you!
Thank you Ninqui!
Absolutely appreciate your videos sir. Thankyou and I have been wanting to build a survival bow. Now I know how to do it. You inspired me! Best wishes from Canada
+Mark Wilson Hi Mark, delighted that I have in a small way nudged you along toward making a bow. Greetings from the UK and good luck!
I love your videos Mick. Thanks for sharing your ideas and content.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed. Mick
Great video! Making a bow is something I wanted to do for a long time. This video helped me realize i do not need a bunch of special tools I do not have. Enjoyed watching, thank you!!
Great stuff Vukan! You can make a bow with just a knife and with a small collection of simple tools you are as well equipped as anyone. Good luck. Mick
Always a pleasure to watch and listen to Mr Greenwood...
+Sarajen I'm definitely green when it comes to wood
Not as green as me... And I served my time 1st & 2nd fixing carpenter ... : ) Just finished Ash board flat bow 45 lb... Do you think Maple board might be good ?
Your videos always get my blood up to go make a bow!
After one of your videos the other day I went out to my garage and got three bows down from storage above the ceiling joists which I made twenty years ago.
I spent an hour stringing them up and drawing each one although I’m unable to draw them back as far as I used to.
Damn getting old sucks!
Too right! Looking 64 in the face I am reminded every day that I am no longer as capable as I was. Been two years since I drew 100lbs. I guess I shouldn’t fear getting old, but I do. Thanks for watching 🙏
Great information! Thank you for putting it out there.
Thank you Wesley. Mick
Great video mick. Keep them coming
Trevor Dennis Thank you Trevor
Excellent video Mick, very informative. Keep up the great bow making videos 😊🏹🏹
Thank you, glad you enjoyed and I appreciate you watching. Mick
What an inspirational video! I'm off to build a bow making shed! Thanks Mick!
Go for it! Then, if don't get to become PM, you've still got your shed ;-)
Most of these tools are available at any diy store / pound shop / discounter. You can alsow ask grandfather if he has them sitting in the shed.
Once always great video
Thank you for watching! Mick
Great Video Mick!
Thank you for watching and commenting, appreciated! Mick
I would love to make a bow like that. Great video, thank you!
Hi Dyana. Have a try yourself, it's a fun thing to try. Mick
Lovely video!
Thank you!
i have almost the same tools which use, except the spoke shave. awesome video mick!
+Descendant xGF Thanks for watching and commenting! Mick
I have the folding saw too. But once the sapling is cut, then I do most of the next steps with power bandsaw and belt sander. Carpal tunnel issues...
Nice work Mick!
Hi there, ouch - carpal tunnel - you are wise to be careful. Thanks for watching. Mick
Can't wait to make another bow. I've got two that haven't failed yet! Long bow roughly 15-20 lbs I was scared it would fail so I made it very light! The second is an osage shortbow, roughly 35 to 40 lbs. I love making them I need to get another stave. I want my next bow to be yew.
Brokenrotor 486 Yew staves can be pricey! Do some good searching before you make a final purchase.
-Aaron
Excellent vid Mick 😊 designed to fire the imagination and create a new movement of home yeoman (and yeowomen) archers and bowyers 😀👍. Great stuff 😊 youll be setting up your own battallion of archers soon Mick 😀 👍
+dave webster Great stuff, exactly the effect I hoped for! Thank you for letting me know. Mick
What a fun channel.
+Paul TheSkeptic 😉
As the others have said, great video. I'm always happy to see a new one come up. I was wondering if you have any plans for a tutorial video about sourcing staves? What to look for, tree identification, signs to avoid, etc? I'd think that would be a logical next step. Cheers!
Hi there Mitch, well you read my mind! Yes that one is on my list - but it has to have limited scope because I only know about the woods I have so far used. That said, there is lots of useful information about those. Hopefully I'll get that video done sooner rather than later. Thanks for the nudge. Mick
Excellent and informative as ever Mick. I've acquired some wide diameter bamboo which is ideal to back some of my ash bows. Also, I'm experimenting making bamboo self-bows. Bamboo is easy to work with but provides unique challenges. I think my self bamboo bow will take some work and may not be conventional or pretty. However, it will be some fun and allow me to chill out on my own, as usual. Keep up the good work, MIck- I always enjoy your enterprises.
Flaxen Saxon
Hi there, that sounds an interesting project - never worked with bamboo apart from sticking bamboo canes in the ground to support tomatoes! Good luck and thanks for watching. Mick
You should do AMSR video brother, your voice and tone males me feel safe.
Thank you. You are safe here 👍
in the us vises can be found at flee markets for really cheap. i got a little craftsmen for 10 bucks
Try using a mixture of pork fat, and beeswax !!!! I've found that it works really well for conditioning the wood, and leaves a very beautiful finish
Will try that, thank you
great video Mick really inspiring have subscribed and look forward to your other videos and maybe make my own bow who knows...
Take care
Roo
Thanks for the sub`Roo!
So glad I found your videos. You are a great presenter! Thanks!
Thank you very much Lars!
Mick Grewcock, Thank YOU!
Since childhood I have wanted to make my own bow. I practised archery as a kid and was obsessed with Robin Hood and all things Medieval. I remember my dad and I at some point went to the woods to find a big branch of a yew (called a taks tree, from the Latin, in my native Denmark) from which to make me a long bow, like Robin Hood’s. But although my father is a fourth generation cabinet maker by training, we were unsure on how to go about making a long bow.
I since worked many years as a lumber jack, but eventually became a classical guitarist by profession and a lutenist of sorts. Unusual background, I know.
I kicked my television out many years ago, and I watch instead wood working videos by Paul Sellers and bow and archery craft with you and select others when ever I have the time and need.
I thank you for bringing all of these disparate but somehow connected interests of mine together by teaching us the seemingly forgotten skills of yet another of mankind’s inventions. I’ve had my goal set at times variously on instrument and furniture making, but I am convinced that bow making might become my spare time enterprise of choice.
I must also further compliment you on, A) being a top-level presenter, comparable to the very best, without exception, and B) having a superbly brilliant dog!
(An aside, is that a Coventry accent, by any chance?)
Wow! You have a great story to tell. I am honoured to share my little stories with viewers who are able to take something from them. I am no more than a novice at making bows but if I inspire others to start practising this wonderful and ancient craft then I feel successful. Thank you for taking time to send me a message that is so uplifting - youtube is not always a place to feel good but stories and feedback such as you've given me makes it all worthwhile. And you have placed my accent almost perfectly! I grew up just 15 miles from Coventry. Good luck on your bow making journey and thanks again .Mick
Mick Grewcock Thanks so much for your reply, Mick. I signed up for your blog and now follow you also on Facebook. I myself took a break from posting on social media which has lasted well over a year. But your videos put me in a good place so thank you again!
I lived for some years in London, where I studied guitar at the Royal Academy. I since moved to New York, where I have lived and worked as a music college professor for nearly 30 years.
In the summer (and sometimes during the semester) I work at Palisades Park right across the Hudson River. I love the outdoors!
I fondly remember my years in England, and I am pleased that I seem to have retained my ear for English accents ;)
Hello Lars. Well, your story gets better! I will visit NY one day - looking forward to that. And yes, your ear for an accent is spot on. Hope to see you more on social media - and thanks for following me. Just started the blog so a bit patchy until I get going. Thanks again and enjoy your day. Mick
I don't understand why people gave you thumb downs. Tq sir. Good one.
Acoi There are always some; it comes with the territory.
@@MickGrewcock yeah.. I wish to see them make a video like this.
thank you , friend.
Oscar Molina
Thanks for watching Oscar! Mick
Thanks for the video. I want to get into making bows i feel like its a still set i should know and well i think its art. :3
Well good luck if you try it out, sure you'll enjoy it. And yes, a good bowyer (not me!) is an artist. Mick
Another fantastic video Mick, I am attempting a five piece bamboo horse bow, limbs, handles and sihyas, at the moment using similar tools, I would recommend a Japanese pull saw,I bought a plastic handle cheap version from Amazon and it is so good I bought a larger one as well. Keep up the fine work my friend you seemed to have cracked bow making as well as film making, look out Steven what's his name!
Hi Mark, I also have a Japanese pull-saw - but I bought it for arrow making rather than bow making. Great bit of kit. Glad you enjoy my videos, though I think Steven Doodah hasn't got much to worry about! Mick
cool
I've made my first hazel flat bow just with drawknife axe and knife at age 13 i think. It wasn't the best but i can shoot arrow at quite long distance (about 70 meters)
Well done! Good luck with your next 👍
@@MickGrewcock thank you very much. I haven't made bow for long time but after i watch your videos i am planing to make one as soon as possible :)
Your filming style is relaxing and easy to follow. You sound very similiar to my favorite naturalist I would watch as a child. I plan on browsing all of your bow making videos. Where can I find that brand of scale youre using for your tillering? Thank you.
Hi there and thank you. The scale is made by a company called Silverline and in the UK is available on eBay and Amazon. It’s a 200lb hanging scale. Thanks 🙏 for watching. Mick
Mick, look into the Amazon affiliate programme. Many youtubers, myself included, use it to make a bit of side income to support their channels!
Sometimes thought of that, does it work for you?
ive always loved the look of a recurved English longbow. im surprised more are not recurved
Because that is not generally how they were done historically.
Clayton Kwater i meant historically speaking
@@Soviless99 it is probably because it is slightly harder to make, and less stable.
Good vid, but a pity there's nothing on stave selection? Tree identification?
I have a knife exactly the same as yours Mick!, came from a clearance i think? i call it my zombie knife, just in case we ever have a zombie apocalypse in Swad.. Hope to see you all soon BBQ or the like before the sun goes! I'll get Caroline on it (the case not the BBQ) :-)
Hi Kev! Zombies eh? Always a problem, and that knife will do the job! Yes, BBQ before the sun goes/zombies arrive 🔥🍷🍗
Do you have a link for that tile saw ?
Can you show us in a video wich bows you have made so far? I'd love to see them all together!
Hello Fleur, have a look at my "Nine Months a Bowyer'. Made a while a go so a few bows missing but I'll do another sometime soon. Thanks for watching. Mick
Just found your channel. Fantastic video! My only critique is that the music is much louder than the rest of the video, and I found myself turning my speakers down when you weren't talking.
Okay, I'll review my settings.
Love your face at 0:18 !!!!
That's the pain of pulling a bow. That one is not especially heavy but it's still a tug for 61 year old! Thanks for watching. Mick
I made a 124 lb bow using a $30 knife and a bit of 0.4mm thick sheet metal. No tiller or special tools
Hi there, yes, as I mention in the video it's perfectly practical to make a bow with just an axe (or knife). But that wasn't the point of the video as I'm sure you realise - just want to encourage people to have a go. Great to get your comment and thanks as ever for watching. Mick
That's luxury,I had to make do with some knapped flint
Hi Mick, I'm working on a holly bow at the moment. I was wondering if you know what kind of shape would be best suited to this type of wood? I.e. a flat belly or round etc.
Excellent videos, keep it up!
+Benny Grey Never worked holly before. Have a look at website 'warbow wales', they have details of Bow profiles and I think they may include holly. If I was to guess, I'd go for flat belly. Thanks for watching. Mick
Had a go at a Rowan ash bow with green wood. Will it get more powerful as the wood dries out? I like your red hot pokers 12.29
Yes, a little
The thing you called a "vernier gauge" is a "dial caliper". The difference is how the measurement is displayed. A vernier scale is mechanically simpler, and therefore more durable, than a dial gauge.
Darxus Yes Thank you. Another viewer has corrected me on this error. Thank you very much. Mick
Nice video Mick, but almost any three of the tools you mention will set me back $100 in US. Yes it's possible to pick up deals on Ebay, but my Ebay experience has not been completely pleasant. It's possible to go much more minimalist. I use mostly a draw knife, a sureform rasp, flat rasp, cabinet scraper, rat-tail file and sand paper. If someone goes the power tool route a simple hand planer and a orbital sander will work for shaping bows once you have the bark off.
Hi there, that's really useful information for my US viewers - thank you very much Of course everyone has a different take on best bow making kit, I just tried to show people how I got started. Appreciate your input. Sad that tools are seemingly so expensive in the US - in the UK tool prices have plummeted over the years (largely due to China). When I tooled up for my first job (electronics) some 40 years ago, tools were wickedly expensive; now we can get power and hand tools for a song - though of course premium brands and very specialist stuff can be more expensive. Thanks again for watching and commenting. Mick
You can get a good draw knife for about $30 and Stanley makes a descent spokeshave for less than $15
Well done Mick, enjoyed you Video very much, how is your 4 legged buddy doing?
Herb

Hi Herb. He’s doing good but approaching his eleventh year so slowing down somewhat! Thanks for watching.
I'm looking to add a spoke shave to my kit, but never having used one I'd love your input on what kind to get. Mainly, the difference between a flat base or round base. I can't tell what yours is, I'm guessing flat.
Loving the videos btw, they're keeping my courage up on my first attempt.
+Steve Long Hi Steve, mine is about the cheapest you can get - about £6 UK - which I bought on eBay. It's a flat one. Delighted you enjoy my vids - and go for that first bow!!
If the only pronounced concave shaping on the bow you might find yourself doing is in the fades on a raised handle flatbow (which you can easily do with a big half-round file) you are unlikely to need a round sole and a flat soled spoke shave is sufficient.
I reckon Mick was maybe just lucky with that cheap blue Chinese imitation of a proper Stanley spokeshave. :-)
Rod Parsons thanks for more insight. I did get a cheap one that I've been practicing with on some truly awful pine 2x2's from a box store I'm using to make poles for a tarp cover for my workspace. It's very hard to get the blade properly positioned, but it's still serviceable until I can find quality tools.
+Rod Parsons Yes it's a cheap one but not hard to 'tune up'. For less than £6, it does a great job!
I've seen a few of those Chinese Stanley 151's and some need rather more than "a little tuning up". A Clifton might be a better choice but I'd rather drop the whole budget on a Lie Nielsen. Now if only they made a spokeshave scraper with a blade like the L- N 212B small scraper plane.
i guess cheap ones are useful while you sort out your tool preferences.
I was wondering for a substitute for beeswax would be honey for the string by applying short amounts on it with a paintbrush and letting it hang? Greetings from Georgia, USA.
No idea about honey! You will have to experiment I guess. Thanks ever so much for watching, appreciated. Greetings from the UK! Mick
What wood did you use for the bow that still had the bark on? What’s that hazel?
dustin decker Yes, hazel. But blackthorn can keep the bark on too.
Yeah yeah, trying to convince us, are you? I reality your shed is real Tardis. ;-)
+Taistelukalkkuna Yes, I am really Dr Who! Mick
Great guide Mick, I feel like this video is gonna be popular :D
btw is there a specific place to get cabinet scrapers? Or are they just one of those things you can sometimes stumble across on Ebay for example?
Hi there. Cabinet scrapers should be available from specialist woodworking suppliers but I sourced mine on ebay (UK). They are available new either individually, a brand called Kunz for just a few UK£ each - but I bought a set of 4 made by a company called Garlick and again via eBay. But you can replicate one with just a piece of flat steel (maybe 1/16") and along one edge work a file so that there is a burr along the edge. Draw the steel toward you along the wood with the burr on the leading edge (toward you). Hey presto, a cabinet scraper. A knife will do the same job if blade is held vertically, though you don't a burr on it. Hope that helps. Mick
Thanks for the tips, I'll look into either getting or making one!
Pretty cool vid! Did you build that workshop yourself?
No, it was made by a local company. Mick
It's pretty nice!!
I wish you had made this video earlier! I think I've spent more than this on tools and still don't have tools for removing a lot of wood quickly (i.e. a cabinet scraper, draw knife, or machete/axe).
Do you have any recommendations when it comes to second hand draw knife brands? A lot of what I've seen on Ebay hasn't been very good; many of the draw knives I've seen have been practically worn down to the nub, and didn't have nearly as much metal left on the blade as yours. Perhaps you might have recommendations on search terms other than just "draw knife"?
Hi there, yes there can be many different sorts of draw knife and there are many brands. I cannot say which brand is best as my experience is limited. What I can say is that thick bladed draw knife that I show is nowhere near as good as the thin bladed one I borrowed once from a friend. That was virtually bendy and made a stunning job; mine is crude and takes off massive slices - not something I always want. I am always on the lookout for them locally, just in case I find a lightly bladed knife with a slight curve (downwards). I prefer older, used knives that have been kept in good order or have been refurbished/sharpened. So I can only say that my heavy and thick bladed knife is not ideal for the work I do - but it is useful. I would use a thinner bladed knife a lot more if I had one! Sorry I can't help more, the ideal is a range of draw knives I guess. Mick
Thanks for the advice! I'll be sure to keep an eye out for local sales. I think there might even be a local forum for the town I'm in that I might be able to ask around in. I was also wondering if, perhaps, you had a go-to resource (video, webpage, etc.) for sharpening/burnishing a cabinet scraper? I was thinking about looking into that as well, since I don't currently have the space (or living situation) for a vice (and bench) to hold my bow in order to use a draw knife.
You don't need all those tools,actually. I made my first bow with an itak ( Philippine machete), a saw, a rasp, a piece of scrap metal as a scraper, and some sandpaper. plus vegetable oil to finish. Those were hard times :)
+Anonymous Philippinensis That's about how I started! Thanks for watching. Mick
I would like to make an English longbow out of Yew, but that is expensive and doesn’t grow where I live.
That's always a challenge I'm afraid. Where do you live?
Also, just a tip, consider trying out an OKC Kukri Knife from Amazon made of 1095 Carbon Steel when harvesting bow making supplies from the bush/woods (1064206 Ontario Knife Co OKC Kukri Knife www.amazon.com/dp/B00519UT42/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_OfTjAbS1WN2D6). It's smaller than a traditional, machete-style Kukri (giving you more room to swing the blade in the bush/woods without hitting other trees/limbs around you). Also, a quick way to keep it sharp while you're on the go is a Corona Sharpener which always you to shape any cutting blade free handed without breaking the bank and small enough to fit in your wallet (Corona AC 8300 Sharpening Tool www.amazon.com/dp/B000BPASBK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_PkTjAbPFT8GKC).
Thanks for the advice, will check them out! Mick
It's illegal to harvest wood in my state without an expensive permit, where can I buy cheap staves for my first bow?
Hi there, whereabouts are you?
12:23 Doves? I think I've heard those same calls way over in the Pacific Northwest as I work in my workshop.
They are collared doves which first nested in the UK in mid 50s. Now commonplace.
@@MickGrewcock Aha! Well, very similar call to the small population that calls my neighborhood home here in the Pacific Northwest, what ever they are, very recognizable.
I would like to have one of his bow is it possible to ship it to Italy? thank you
I don’t sell my bows. I’m sorry.
@@MickGrewcockpity I would have liked to have it. thanks anyway
First.
+Stephen Gadberry 👌
I thought you have to use seasoned wood for bows tho
Yes, to make a durable bow and obtain maximum power from the wood it is best to use seasoned wood. But green wood can make useable bows. This one is still going strong after two plus years. Thanks for watching.
What is the species of this wood?
Tony Stark Hazel
I really need some help tillering my longbow Mick. I was given a longbow blank, and I don't know how to make bows. Do you have an email I can contact you on?
I have a sense of what to do, but I might break it if I try to tiller it, I don't have money for a tree.
Hi there. Go to About on my RUclips channel. You’ll find an email link there.
ola boa noite manda um arco desçe para min o mais forte que voçe tem
I am a tool addict and I Highly advice you to get a shinto japanese saw rasp from Axeminster its excellent for making bows: www.axminster.co.uk/japanese-saw-rasp-384015
Also Check out the dictum spokeshaves and planes with a japanese steel blade: www.dictum.com/en/tools/woodworking-metalworking/planes
Also a really good sharpening stone with 600-8000 grit
Great video as always!
That's some great advice Frederik! I intend to get a Shinto rasp soon but I'm grateful for the nudge! Thanks again, Mick
Love the content but it not possible for an American to to make a bow with 100 bucks a knife of a machete is about 40 for a knife 30 for the machete then you need a file that’s 25 to 30 bucks the hand saw is another 20 bucks then the tiller knife if if you sue what you already paid for you save. But. If not then that’s another 40 bucks sir this doesn’t work I found that I needed almost 300 bucks to start…also you need wax to wax the tips that’s not free you will need string for the bow that’s not free like man the more I think about it the more it’s not not close to 100
That is an old video and at the time in the UK that figure was true. I bought lots of my tools secondhand.
More subscribers plese
Makes* haha
Am I the only American that notices Brits like to jump "into" the camera field of view? Sometimes crouch and jump " into" center of camera field? Granted, this guy isn't bad as others, but he also talks slightly excessively with his hand to show weird emphasis at times that don't require it? I mean, I'm excited about tools... does he need to show everyone how to be excited about tools, like even 2nd graders changing channels or something (bad example) you get what I'm saying.
Bows are amazing are inspiring by the way, just something that popped up in my mind, watching another British guy on tv or British guy imitating tv.
Funny
Do u have Instagram?_?
Yes, my name. Link in description of all vudeos
8:23 - no thanks. Although the weird background music almost gave me it. :(
Seven months ago you made a reference here to brain cancer. Now AIDs. Beware of life, it's not that funny.
Frankly all i need is an axe
Good for you! Thanks for watching.
Ah Jesus xD thanks for your videos good man, this bow making has been in my mind a couple of months and i gotten to see one of your videos months ago and were very useful, thank you very much, hope god give you health and a awesome year, and yep im finnishing my first bow! :)
I got a draw knife,rasp, palm grinder, knive, machete,
Mick Grewcock Do you show the tiller process?
Hi Bryan! Well, thanks for that - health? Well, not been a good year but much hope for 2018. Hope you are well too. Keep watching, more videos to come. Bow stuff and other adventures. Well done on your first bow. Keep it up. Mick
