This week we're back in the bow building shop making another osage orange longbow. I'll walk you through the selfbow building process step by step and explain everything from how to follow a growth ring to layout, roughing out the bow and final tillering. If you're a beginner bowyer or have been building primitive bows for years, you're bound to pick up some bow building tips and tricks from this one.
