Chinese Bow

I made this from scrap wood left over from other projects. I dont know how the Chinese designed theirs so this is my design. Call it reverse engineering.

@italok9 The advatange with the crossbow is that it requires little practice compared to a regular bow, especially the longbow. If you're such an expert you would've known your bow history. Why don't you just admire the man for his craftmanship. Check out his other videos or his homepage...

You make cool bows

I suppose you wouldn't need that much accuracy back then, just aim in the general direction of the enemy army and shoot, you'll hit something.

If you decide to make another, redesign the buttstock to rest against your hip, rather than underarm. This will give you more stability against the lever. For all accounts I've read and seen this is how the originals were designed.

As far as the mechanism itself, it's an incredibly faithful reproduction in the simple fact that it works.
