The American flat Bow
Taking Monstagirl and Anti's advice, and moved my post about my Bow project to this thread. That way I can bore you folks some more!

Cut out
Straightening
Adding reflex
Next is the tillering (Shaping)

You think he's gone? He's not gone. That's the whole point! He's never gone!

I want to be the first guy in town to use a hand made American flat bow to kill a home invader.
