A lot of my Fans asked me to make Bow so i tried to make most perfect Bow that i can.<br /><br />Overall Length: 40 Inches<br />Handle Length: 10 Inches<br />Stretched Length: 35 Inches<br /><br />All the Processes are below of making this beautiful Bow:<br />Forging:<br /> It took me almost two days to prepare and hand forge Leaf Spring piece into a long Steel Strip and this was my most complicated forging ever. I don't have any serious equipment so all the forging as well as hot metal bending i did with my hands and turned a spring piece into an 40 inches metal strip.<br />Grinding:<br /> I make most of grindings of bent strip with my Angle grinder and turned the strip into a well shaped workpiece. I also<br />did a lot of hand sanding with a help of abrasive to remove the edges and almost all the roughness of the blank.<br /> v. I made grooves on Limbs with the help of round file. <br /> v. Hand Sanded the surface to remove roughness. <br /> v. The recurve made on special device which delivers energy more efficiently.<br />Hardness:<br /> There is a professional way to harden a<br />Bow and that is<br /> Heating the whole surface placed into a Fire evenly to a critical temperature.
