All I could find was a build along from graps. He moved all his pics or something though.

Tony, can you dig up your string build thread?

Hi Jason!!!! :D

I tried to find it today, I'll try again tomorrow. I remember the title being something like "doing the twist". :lol:

Welcome aboard, I feel your pain, I too am plagued with nightmares of getting new bows... a short bow... a 2 piece bow.... the 59 kodiak... making my own bow....

Motorsickles is very addictive and can be very pricey as well.

Cookies is the fine Gent who showed me this forum, Thanks Cookies

Roadking, now the name makes sense.......only 3 bows for me so I got some catching up to do :D

Making a flemish string is actually very easy once you do it once or twice. Maybe I will do a detailed pic and build thread on it


AND.......reading on the bow builds has got me to where I want to make one now but, it will have to be towards the summer because I have a couple of bike builds to finish before I start ordering materials

Nothing clears a troubled mind like shooting a bow.
