  • The Back Street Bowyer Introduction This Guide Is Aimed at Someone
    The Back Street Bowyer www.alanesq.com v2.61 – Sep 10 Introduction This guide is aimed at someone who fancies having a try at making themselves an English longbow but who has no idea how to go about it (even if you have no woodworking experience at all) i.e. In exactly the same position I was in myself not so long ago I should point out that I have no training in the subject and most of what I am passing on here is either what people on forums have kindly passed on to me or I have figured out myself through trial and error. I strongly suspect much of what I say here will cause a real bowyer to laugh out loud, but what I can say is that using these methods I have made several bows ranging from 45lb at 28” to 160lb at 32” at a maximum cost of £40. Although the guide takes you through making a self bow with chased growth ring, I would actually recommend that for a first bow you consider making a laminate or a self bow turned through 90 degrees (both explained later in this guide) as they are very much easier to make So if you want to make yourself a working bow as cheaply and simply as possible then this is the guide for you. If you want to learn the traditional techniques then this may not be for you? but you could consider attending a course like the ones run by www.diyarchery.co.uk or www.tradlongbows.co.uk All the longbows I have made are the traditional medieval style of English longbow i.e.
