I have gotten an all clear by my school and shop teacher to assemble a lamination press and make a longbow but I would like some suggestions or pointers to get started. I have a basic idea of what I need to do to make a press but I'm still not sure how to do it. I have made some bows using staves but I've never attempted anything like this. I want to stay away from fiberglass and use woods such as bamboo and cherry and I have an idea of the design I'm going to use but does anyone know anything about making all wood laminated longbow?
put this in the bowyers forum and youll mpre likley get a hit
