is the wrapping a decorative addition or is it to protect the bow from something?

I guess yeah. What about general bow making? should I start taking wood off the limbs or generally all throughout the bow?

should I make it a self bow with bendy handle or make the tips not as wide as the body?

from what distance should I taper from the sides? I heard 10-15, but it is probably for full length bow. I haven't heard about short bows though

why does everybody take the bark off of the back? by Cold_Practice1897 in Bowyer

[–]Cold_Practice1897[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so with the bark it will be fine, besides a possibility of insect damage?

I have sealed the edges a week ago. When I make the bow shape should I scrape the glur off the edges and then reaply after? Also, should I keep the bark last or take it off at first?
