Yes,I got the right attachment angle.That is a headless method but work well.

Because of the wood block are not come in square,so the square surface can not read as reference .

Is it true all your saws cut on the pull stroke instead of the push stroke?

Keep the build alongs coming,,, there are very inspiring!

Welcome back. What a work of art. Thank you for taking the time to post your progress.

I am truly sorry for your loss. My father passed a little over a year ago, so I have an idea how you feel. You and your family will be in my prayers.

Hi Hera,

Great to see you back! The bow is looking good! I'm really sorry about your loss! I lost my grandfather, 4 days before Christmas, so I have an idea of what you're feeling! Thanks for sharing these build alongs, you're an incredibly skilled man! ;)

Super nice work Hera. Really like those yew limbs.

Sorry to hear about your Dad. Lost my surrogate dad a few years back. He introduced me to archery when I was a little fellow. I know what it's like. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Hey LEOPARD
This is my first try to build a rosewood riser.
It is rosewood from east india.
I can not choice my favor grain and color , that is a big problem to buy a wood block from internet.
In this rose wood riser,too dark to show out the grain.I will try rosewood santos next time.
Thank you for your input.

Hey 2Knives

I think I probably said that a million times I bet( LOL ),it is not very difficult to build a bow.

I build and post, not for blatancy,just to say I love trad archery and wood working.I really think I'm just normal average.
Tons of great bow and bowyer out there,I learn a lot from their website and here,and I will build and post continually.Archery is a great sport in my opinion,it improve our viability in migration 100000 years ago,hats off to archery.

I like the shape of longbow,but my longbow building attempt is a tragedy.I give it a try 3 months ago,I give up that bow because of big handshake and stacking at my drawlength.I underestimate the knowledge and endeavor of the longbow building.

(Shooting video tomorrow)
