  • where did you salvage the hooks from?? DO NOT USE BUNGIE CORD HOOKS YOUVE BEEN WARNED!!

  • @vinosd773 ddude, they are regular pulleys, probably to be used in constructions sites or in a roof clothesline. Of course nobody would use bungie cord hooks, afterall you need a pulley!

  • Where did u get the plans for building it. What books should I look for to create one?

  • @zprify no plans, no blueprints man, did it all by myself, improved it from the mistakes I did in the first one

  • Great crossbow.  Why did you move from centric to eccentric pulleys?

  • @borat6363 eccentric pulleys will increase the string acceleration during the shot! Cams work similar to that, but they are pretty expensive... Pulleys can be easily turned

  • Im going to copy this design for my 150lb crossbow. Thanks for posting.

  • hey

    VERRRYYYYYYYYY NICELY DONE, can you please make a video on how to attatch the stings?

    Thank you

  • very nicely built crossbows! i am thinking about building one myself, but i am not sure wich kind of pulleys to use. you have any recommendations? thanks in advance =).

    btw, i am from brazil too =P. im only writing in english coz of possible other viewers wondering about the pulleys too.

  • @shervin814 dude, I had to pay only for the fiberglass, the string and some screws, which sum less than 30 dollars... the other parts come from scrap material from the workshop where I was working in the crossbow

  • how much did this all cost you?

  • @lockpick92 in bows the excentric pulleys also increase a lot of the strenght in the way to the full draw, having a massive drop by the end, right?

    in crossbows, as the trigger holds the string, obviusly, I projected the pulley so as it cocked just before that drop, hence, I have more strenght derivered to the bolt during the shot, thus increasing it's aceleration, so as to have a higher final speed...

    about the bow, fiberglass has a higher response and lower density, so it's better than steel.
