Nice Job! I have been contemplating doing this instead of spending the $1000 on one. Thanks for the links.
LCA green press is around $400.
Nice build man
Looks good man!!! 👌
Nicely done! 👏👏👏 I’d like to start working on my own bow but bow press and draw board are $$$$. Too bad I don’t have the equipment/tools to build this.
One quick question! Did you use a bearing at the end of the 2 inch tubing, mounted on the all thread. This bearing will support the all thread and turn smoothly.
Great build! I like your design where you have the two plates welded to the square tubing. thank you for sharing your design.
I did not, but that is a smart idea. It is still pretty smooth though. I put grease on it and it has never bound up.
FYI...I decided I don't like the angle of the bow when I hang the bow on the bar stock for the draw board. I was worried the string might derail. So I've just started hanging the bow on the square tubing. It works better because it keeps the bow perfectly level. I may even cut off the bar stock since I won't be using it for the draw board anymore.
Could you show the double nut ,on handle!!? Mine is sliding way out before it connects for pressing etc!!
It is as simple as putting two nuts tight together on the other side of the handle. The positive engagement will keep them, and your handle, from moving out.
@@kellymondragon3404 thanks 👍👍
How long is the tubing for the press
The bigger tube is 28" and the smaller tube is 26". Should fit pretty much any bow you can throw at it.
You have a Bill Of Materials and cut list
The materials are in the description. I'll add a cut list soon. I did measure the tubes. The bigger tube is 28" and the smaller tube is 26". Should be able to fit almost any bow you can throw at it.
You built this for 150$-200$?
Yes I did. However, like I mentioned in the video, I had most of the steel. So all I bought were the fingers ($80), the aluminum rod ($10), the winch ($25), plastic square plugs ($10), all-thread rod ($10), and spray paint ($10).
I haven't priced metal lately, but I bet you could get it all from a scrap yard for less than $100 if you don't have any laying around like I did.
Be very careful with this. Last Chance has been known for coming after people doing this, especially when your design is pretty much their design.
Really? Interesting. I'm not selling the press or the plans. Not sure what they would come after me for...
You can’t come after someone for making something for person use.
