Bows can be made out of many type of materials and tools at low cost. in my previous videos, I built a few bows from old bicycle wheels . They can be as cool as bow made form PVC pipe especially when it can function as a normal bow or even can do bow fishing with it. I built one of bow with the inspiration from the Green Arrow bow, or Oneida compound bow. This time, I would like to present you my new folding surival bow I made from an old rusty leaf spring which I bought at the local salvage yard and I also insert the steel limbs in PVC pipe I flattened. I. After several test shot at the target, i think one day, I should use it to do bow fishing a long with my crossbow. It's also fun for shooting this bow vs coke. The draw weight is 50lbs at 28 inches.. Each limb is 2mm thick, 1.5cm wide at the tip and 3mm thick and 2cm wide at the base and each is 45cm long. The riser is 55 long and 3.5cm thic, 5 cm wide.

In this bow making process, I let the steel cool down many time with water during the grinding. Sorry, I should have mentioned it in this video like in my provious video about Korean steel bow making. The elasticity is not affeated after lots of shooting and leaving the string unstrung, there 's no bow memory or lose of draw weight.
I also did it when I tried to reduce the draw weight, originally it was around 80lbs, so grounded them thiner at the edge and thicker at the base until I got around 50lbs. it's also lots of work. i intentionally made the limbs till backward to reduce the draw weight.
The hardwood is super dense. I pre-drilled the wood, and the screw kept breaking when trying to fasten the steel to the hard wood. I also tried different screw. So I decided to use nails by also pre-drilling the woods before driving them in. I also took the video of this failure, I should have included the clip in this video, but i just wanted to make the vides as short as I can. I am sorry that I didn't include some clips as I want the video to be shorter.

In my previous video, I built a similar bow using four coil springs making the bow strong enough to shoot small games or do bow fishing. And I also show how I made the arrow rest from a PVC pipe. In my previous video I show a bow that I made out of a Leaf Spring that I found an old leaf spring at the local salvage yard. It was a good bow and more powerful than this bow.


Bögen können aus vielen Arten von Materialien und Werkzeugen kostengünstig hergestellt werden. In meinen vorherigen Videos habe ich ein paar Bögen aus alten Fahrradrädern gebaut. Sie können so cool sein wie ein aus PVC-Rohr hergestellter Bogen, besonders wenn sie als normaler Bogen funktionieren oder sogar mit dem Bogen angeln können. Ich habe einen Bogen gebaut, der vom Green Arrow-Bogen oder Oneida-Compoundbogen inspiriert ist. Dieses Mal möchte ich euch meinen neuen faltbaren Überlebensbogen vorstellen, den ich aus einer alten rostigen Blattfeder gemacht habe, die ich auf dem örtlichen Schrottplatz gekauft habe, und ich stecke auch die Stahlglieder in ein PVC-Rohr, das ich flachgedrückt habe. I. Nach mehreren Testschüssen auf die Zielscheibe denke ich, dass ich sie eines Tages zum Bogenfischen mit meiner Armbrust verwenden sollte. Es macht auch Spaß, diesen Bogen gegen Koks zu schießen. Das Zuggewicht beträgt 50lbs bei 28 Zoll.

In meinem vorherigen Video habe ich einen ähnlichen Bogen mit vier Schraubenfedern gebaut, die den Bogen stark genug machen, um kleine Spiele zu schießen oder mit dem Bogen zu fischen. Und ich zeige auch, wie ich die Pfeilauflage aus einem PVC-Rohr gemacht habe. In meinem vorherigen Video zeige ich einen Bogen, den ich aus einer Blattfeder gemacht habe, die ich auf dem örtlichen Schrottplatz gefunden habe. Es war ein guter Bogen und stärker als dieser Bogen.

Buer kan lages av mange typer materialer og verktøy til lave kostnader. i mine tidligere videoer bygde jeg noen buer av gamle sykkelhjul . De kan være like kule som bue laget av PVC-rør, spesielt når det kan fungere som en vanlig bue eller til og med kan drive buefiske med det. Jeg bygde en av bue med inspirasjon fra Green Arrow-buen, eller Oneida-sammensatt bue. Denne gangen har jeg lyst til å presentere dere min nye sammenleggbare surival-sløyfe jeg laget av en gammel rusten bladfjær som jeg kjøpte på den lokale bergingsplassen, og jeg setter også inn stållemmene i PVC-røret jeg flatet. I. Etter flere testskudd mot målet, tror jeg en dag, jeg burde bruke den til å fiske med bue lenge med armbrøsten. Det er også morsomt å skyte denne buen vs cola. Trekkvekten er 50lbs ved 28 tommer.

I min forrige video bygde jeg en lignende bue med fire spiralfjærer som gjorde buen sterk nok til å skyte små spill eller fiske med bue. Og jeg viser også hvordan jeg laget pilen hvile fra et PVC-rør. I min forrige video viser jeg en bue som jeg laget av en bladfjær som jeg fant en gammel bladfjær på den lokale bergingsgården. Det var en god bue og kraftigere enn denne buen.
