Build a bow-and-arrow set
|
In just a few simple steps, you can build your own bow-and-arrow s arrows that shoot more than 30 or 4o yards. Here's how.
YOU'LL NEED:
* a piece of hardwood 3/8 inch thick, 7/8 inch wide and as long as you are tall. Ash is one of the best easy-to-find bow woods, but maple and oak work well too.
Don't use pine or any wood with knots or blemishes. Your bow will come under a lot of strain when bent, so it must be both flexible and strong.
* a piece of 3/32-inch-thick string, 16 inches longer than the bow wood. The less stretchy, the better.
