I bought one of Maryellen’s Maximilian crossbows. Beautifully made, hard hitting, and shoots straight. This video shows the depth of her talent and attention to detail. She was chosen for this video precisely for those reasons. Very well presented and informative. I highly recommend Swifthound Bows.
I fired My hunting crossbow when I first got it at a target (piece of decking with circle drawn on ) in my garden It went straight through it through my shed door through a dehumidifier that was in the shed then out the other side and never found again I now treat it with a lot more care a caution
I’d like a blue print of this bow and it’s dimensions. I do medieval reenactment and do a ton of archery and want to expand into making period crossbows. Do you know how I can get my hands on details of this crossbows build?
I liked the crossbows I watched you make, real art. Do you sell such copies? I was injured and can't use my longbow anymore...shoulder issues,but I still want to use a period correct piece.
Didn't show anything of the making of the metal the bow, trigger mechanism or loading foot rest, this just shows how to make the wooden stock which is the least important part of the process! This video should be titles "watch someone make a wood and bone stock for a medieval style crowsbow from a lomp of wood and several metal parts sourced elsewhere".
The church banned all projectile weapons not just crossbows. However it wasnt listened too and the crossbow actually sucks at armour penetration due to its tiny draw length. Crossbows arm anyone and anyone can be very accurate with it. Doesnt take much strength or training to use either.
Wish I could do that, but, I can't and make a living. I am not a hobbyist, this is my business, and thus, I do need to use some power tools. I simply do not have the time. Sorry...
I am so impressed by her craftsmanship. A true artisan.

Yeah, I don't typically comment on videos like this, but I'm VERY impressed and inspired by your craftsmanship and excellence. Thank you.

Get you a girl that makes her own crossbows.

Prawdziwa Dama z pasją :) Gratulacje i pozdrowienia z Polski !
whats the draw weight of this one
She can easily span it, so i guess way below 100lbs
They should have done a video on tods workshop for this he is way to good
I actually asked them why they did not do Tod instead of me!
@@m.vorburdwood.8354 u cheaper obviously

How do you determinate the draw length ?
you are making one bow powerful name
I'm going to make this medieval crossbow
A medieval crossbows has a horn bow, Steel became common after the middle ages
Look just super! Thank you for sharing!
amazing work!!!
Damn she a badass
the first was the french crossbow as shown in many tv series
Ah yes, maybe we bigfoots can start using these on the humans who litter everywhere in the woods
OH MY GOD BIGFOOT
I'm your biggest fan. I saw you in Arkansas!
Now I can build one for survival purposes
Exactly
Ikr
crossbows where not the most feard medieval weapon i would say it was the cannon but the fear from it wore of quickly after the time of crecy
plus they had sturrips as early as the beggining of the 13th century
Anyone else clicked on this thinking they can make this in the middle of the woods if they happen to be stranded?
Where do I order one

Also the crossbow in the final scene is not the one we watched her working on, there is no bone inlay😠
Misss I like your crossbow

from scratch? well that was a lie
Sadly discovery channel skipped over 90% of the actually interesting stuff.

Muito bom

Animals bones?
Humanely harvested camel bone. Is what I use for the inlay, sometimes, cow bone.

Context to the church trying to ban crossbows...yes...but they attempted to ban ALL archery.
Failed miserably obviously.
Jesus loves you
Im early
Ugly
I lose respect for people who “replicate” traditional pieces with modern power tools. It loses the magic
Wish I could do that, but, I can't and make a living. I am not a hobbyist, this is my business, and thus, I do need to use some power tools. I simply do not have the time. Sorry...
And, I do not actually need your respect to make my living....
Don't listen to the trolls, you do beautiful work. I love this crossbow.
Would you rather we still graffitied the walls of our caves ??????
way too misbalanced. no precision, no mobility
Heh! Dude, you have no freaking clue! When you have made and shot medieval crossbows for 15 years, you come back and talk to me! Until then... STFU.
