Description

Making a Rattan Bow

Rattan is a very light material consisting of a soft, flexible core and a protective hard circumference which makes it an excellent choice for bow making. Rattan also has elastic like properties which allow the back part of the bow to handle the tense strength while the belly of the bow is better able to resist its compression force. This book Making a Rattan Bow, will go over creating the bow profile, tillering, leather grips, shaping the handle, making wood overlays for the tips, and so much more. An excellent book for archers, woodworkers, and crafters of all skill levels.
