निर्देशनहरू

1

Select Stave

Straight hardwood: yew, ash, elm, or hickory. 150-170cm (ground to chin). Must be dry. The back (target side) = one continuous growth ring, never cut across grain. Avoid: pine, spruce (too soft).

Materials for this step:

Hardwood stave (150-170cm)Hardwood stave (150-170cm)1 टुक्रा
Pine pitch gluePine pitch glue1 डण्डी
2

Shape & Nock

Mark 10cm handle at center. Taper limbs from handle to tips. D-shaped cross-section: flat back, rounded belly. Cut shallow string nocks at each tip.

Tiller

String loosely, pull a few cm. Both limbs must bend evenly. Shave belly where stiff — tiny amounts only. Gradually increase draw. Target: 15-25kg draw weight.
4

Bowstring

Reverse-wrap cord from strong plant fibers (see cordage blueprint). Wax with beeswax. 15cm shorter than bow for proper tension.

Materials for this step:

Strong cordageStrong cordage2 मिटर

Arrow Shafts

Straight shoots (dogwood, willow), 70-80cm, 8-10mm diameter. Peel, dry, straighten over coals. Cut nock at one end.

Materials for this step:

Arrow shootsArrow shoots6 टुक्रा

Fletch & Point

3 split feathers per arrow, 10-12cm long, bound with sinew and pine pitch. Points: knapped flint, hardwood, or fire-hardened tips. Balance point 10-15% forward of center.
