10:35 Oh no, they're actually learning. Soon they'll actually know what the hell they're doing. The channel is ruined. LESS THAN TWO MINUTES LATER: Oh thank god.
@@braulioortiz6571 Oh, yeah, because they're the ones who came up with the PVC bows. Wait, that's not right, is it? But surely they were the first ones to do it on UA-cam? What, they weren't? It's as if it's a very likely coincidence considering the subject matter of both the channels, i.e. (improvised) weaponry.
I was actually hopeful when they mentioned a recurve and recurve string .. then they attached it to the wrong side without actually bending the bow... apparently they wanted to make a bow without even the most BASIC level of understanding of how/why bows work, or even a quick Google search of how to string one... although he mentioned that he'd seen videos of people making them... so I guess he saw the videos without taking ANY of the information on?? I'm kinda confused tbh.
But seriously. In a world where hords of people are waiting to pick on imperfection online you guys are happy to wing it. Seriously much respect for being brave enough to just give shit a go. It's a refreshing change online ;)
As an Archery coach from the uk, this is a great coaching video on what not to do. I'm surprised you got through it without any injuries. and thats more a primitive bow and not a welsh/ english longbow. that being said, i do enjoy seeing the archery vids by you guys. please continue. You should start with learning how to shoot a longbow than have a go at Popinjay.
Jacob Bothast the “wrong” side isnt really the “wrong” side, theres people who prefer shooting it opposite, there are people that use right handed bows on their right hand (rather then holding the string) Its weird... Technically not the proper way and honestly this could have ended really bad 😂, also it was already curved inward, i dont know much about longbows and Mongolian bows but my recurve and others are curved outward and curve inward when strung 😂 Edit: i just remembered english hunters and military who used bows would actually shoot the way brian did on the opposite side b/c it was better for speed shooting, lars anderson also does this
"We made a bow!" *squints* I suppose if you look hard enough. Seriously, good job guys. That was fun to watch. Be careful with that short-range shooting.
Okay we've got mounted archery... now we know how to make a bow... Next we learn how to break a wild horse and we can basically start a Mongolian Horde FROM SCRATCH! PS Elderberry Trees make great improvised bows. They grow all over in the south, really flexible, lightweight.
I love seeing them do things badly; it's exactly what would happen in my garage and they get all the injuries. It's the perfect "don't try this at home" method as there's literally no reason. You guys are great!
Seriously though, this is one of the best produced UA-cam shows out there and one of my favourites. If it didn't mean getting gouged, I'd say it belongs on
You realised your mistake with the bows curve being too large and for your first bow made it wasn't bad. And i see you guys using the archery technique from the horseback archery episode. I'd give you a 8/10 on this one, maybe even a nine.
They should try and guide the arrow with their index finger without it being in the way, improves your accuracy massively. EDIT: As in put the arrow at the side of where your hand is that is holding the bow
From Hacking the System, to Legend Testers, to Bad Builders. I would watch all of it (already watched the first one, the other two might be as good, if not better). I damn love this show so much!
I saw a 3rd body in the thumbnail wearing a cat shirt and I got insanely excited thinking it was a collaboration with William Osman so I clicked instantly, but then I was slightly disappointed, still gonna be a cool video I guess
As an archery instructor, I have to say this episode was very painful to watch. I ofcourse could not look away. Considering your bad form and missing a shelf/rest to place your arrow on, I think your bow was quite good.
Cristian Marturet GM: 'Alright, Brian, your turn!' Brian: 'I roll to use Pruno as a chemical bomb' GM: 'You know what? I'll allow it' Jason: 'Ha! NAT 20!' GM, shocked: 'The Pruno-bomb is so effective that even with your homemade gasmasks, everybody in the boss room except for Brian dies from puking' Brian: 'I roll to cover Jason's body in Lye so that no one will know what happened' GM: 'NO'
Honestly i think you guys did a great job for your first go! I personally enjoy making PVC bows, high draw weights and smooth shooting. All i can think the whole time watching this is how fun it would have been to make a bow with you guys lol
They made the bow completely shit and they had the potential to make a really good bow with the tools they had at hand but man watch 1 vid on bow making of any kind then compare to this shit
You aren't a true UA-cam'r until you refer to ideas and thoughts as _"imaginary comments in my head"._ That's true dedication, and living that entertainer lifestyle! Brian is a treasure.
If Jason isn't dressed like Legolas in this video, I'm setting something aflame... ...using this Pyro Mini I just bought at scamstuff! Only 149.99! 149.99?! 149.99! Get yours now!
Despite any internal flaws with the bow, one issue with accuracy is that their arrow is being shot from the wrong side. A right-handed shooter crosses the arrow to the left side of the bow, and vice-versa for left-handed shooters. You can't look down the arrow if it is not aligned with the bow, permanently aiming to the right.
Many eastern styles of archery have it shot from the right side as it allowed them to fire off arrows faster. Aiming was more about intuition and instinctive while western styles usually had it on the left side. Obviously, they aren't experienced in archery so having the arrow on the left would have been better for this since it is easier to pick up.
The editing on this episode is beautiful. I found myself cackling every couple of minutes between the shenanigans of our rogues and the smug sarcasm of their video editor. Brandt, you're awesome
I liked when you revisited the potato cannon. So I'd love an Episode where you improve the PVC Bow and maybe test it on the homemade Body Armor. Or maybe you also try making flaming arrows or something.
Please also do an Episode on Disguises. You'd both come up with an disguise and to test them you might meet at a cafe or something. While one of you puts on their disguise in the cafe's restroom the other leaves the cafe and sits down on a bench around the corner. The person on the bench would wear a vest or a coat with about 3-5 decent sized buttons. Of which he would unbutton any number he wants. The disguised person than has to walk past the person on the bench, count the buttons and walk around the next corner. From there he has to text the number of still buttoned buttons to win. The guy on the bench maybe has to take a picture of the disguised guy to prove that he recognised him. Or he just calls him out when he walks by. Either way is fine. Then you'd switch roles.
Dustin the WIN! Still wasn't the "simplest way" I made mine a few years ago with a thinner pipe, paracord, and a file. Just cut notches in each end and tied the cord. Works great.
I was actually planning on doing that but decided I didn't need the extra power. Instead, since I didn't have any arrows, I cut the rods into arrow length. p.s. bad idea. my hands were covered in fiberglass slivers xD
3:50 "How bad do you think the chemicals we're inhaling are ?" Well, when burnt PVC creates hydrochloric acid, but I'm sure i didn't get hot enough for that right? ...right? The atmosphere in this episode was great enough that I don't even care if the bow couldn't kill orcs reliably.
I made bows out of PVC pipe for electrical installations when I was a kid back in the '70s. I can guarantee it was a real weapon. A 2 " nail at the end of a wooden rod was perfect for an arrow. Bricklayers rope served perfectly and were durable.
Ive been waiting sooo long for this one and im going to go out on a limb and say the injury counter is gonna be reset Edit: ways you could improve it 1. heat the end sections in one go and use a long bit of wood to get an even taper 2. use a round file and cut the grooves at an angle to hold the string better 3. tape on an arrow rest to help when aiming 4. *LEARN ARCHERY BETTER!!!*
Some tips for future archery endeavors. Use feather fetching instead of plastic vanes. The feathers collapse as they pass the riser (where your hand is on the bow) and don't kick out as bad. Secondly, when using your fingers instead of a thumb draw, you want to place the arrow on the top of your knuckles on your bow hand. Lastly, avoid bulky gloves as they prevent a smooth release. Oh, and keep that elbow up...straight line from bow hand to elbow.
The reason there's one larger loop on the bowstring is that some bows are strung by sliding the larger loop down the arm of the bow, fitting the smaller loop at the end of the other arm and then, when you bend the bow, you slide the large loop up the arm and into the retaining slots - rather than trying to bend the bow far enough to get the loop over the _end_ of the arm.
I love so much that the beginning started with Jason being afraid of altering the integrity of the pvc and then they later decide to heat it to curve the unit and decrease the draw power of it. I love how much improvising you guys do 😂 I’ve wanted to work with you guys so long you’re so funny
Brian, don’t leave the bow strung, it’s not good for it. Especially with PVC, at room temp it’s slightly pliable, and if you refrigerate it, it becomes brittle. So definitely don’t leave it strung. Just a tip. Also, I expect that only you read the comments. Sorry, Jason.
LJTwiggy the opposite. Jason often comments from his own account that's all. *I don't mean to leave it strung that will destroy the little strength it has I meant that Jason is who reads the comments usually not Brian
Should've done 1/2 inch, I used to make these all the time and you can easily get 40lb draw with the effectiveness of a 75lb And you're right handed so put the arrow on the left side of the bow and slightly tilt it
you should check out ZNA productions, on his channel he puts fiberglass rods in the pvc to increase the draw weight of the bow, he has done multiple designs.
For anyone else coming back through this comment chain, also check out the Backyard Bowyer. His entire channel is pretty much just about making bows out of pvc. He's a master at it. ZNA is pretty good too, but he's more like adept than master.
You guys did great! :D I've made some recurve PVC bows myself, can recommend Backyard Bowyer if you didn't find it already. Good job on the aluminium foil heat reflector!
GREAT VIDEO! Best way to learn is to learn from your mistakes... and in this video we learn from their mistakes lol.. ive been watching diy pvc bow videos all week and i usually have the same questions after each video. These guys basically answered every small in between step questions that i had thought up frequently. Liked and Subscribed... --Id say watch the video that has the most legit bow to your choosing. and then watch this video after you have the first one memorized basically//ready to start.
My brothers and I have been using PVC bows for our own version of LARP that we play; at one point we put foam pads on curtain hangers to use as arrows.
I prefer these guys for several reasons but one in particular: Modern Rogue puts their ads at the very end of the video. KoR shoves a five to ten minute mattress commercial RIGHT IN THE FUCKING MIDDLE of his videos.
*You guys are great* 😋 Seriously though J & B you guys are awesome and funny to watch. Love scam school and modern rogue can't wait for every new episode.
you know kids next door with their If im correct, two by four tech? we need what this channel does, PVC tech in the PVC age XD! just everything is PVC lol.
I really enjoyed this video. And, while I haven't made a pvc bow myself, I have a few suggestions that could help. First, with as easy as it was to bend, you probably could make a recurve without much trouble, and not only will it improve the power of the bow, it'll be less likely for the acting to slide off. Two, if you don't have a dremel tool (why wouldn't you, they are awesome!) you should definitely invest in one and get some carving bits. You could, for example, use one to make a quick, smooth notch for the string that's less likely to wear out the loop of the string. Third, if you're shooting right-handed (and not on horse back), the arrow goes along the left side of the bow, not the right. Fourth, you really should work on your form to get more consistent shooting (not that what you were doing want fun to watch). Fifth, after making the bow, find out what the draw weight is so you can get the right arrows for it. The last one is a bit complicated, but the reason has to do with what's called the archer's paradox. When launched from a bow, arrows bend back and forth...meaning the tip doesn't go in a straight line. All arrows have a spine rating which determines how much that happens based mainly on the weight off the bow. You actually want some "bendiness" as the string and shaft are in line which causes the arrow to get deflected, which the "bendiness" corrects for (simplified explication). Again, I think this was talked about in the mounted archery episode. Anyway, I'd love to see an episode where you revisit now making and see if you can improve on your pvc bow. Basically, I'm hoping you can manage to more effectively shot the dummy (and not reset the injury counter 😝).
Brian is either super comfortable after his vacation or he is wasted. Edit: yeah, I'm definitely leaning. Plus you guys had way too much fun in this one. Good Production.

subscribe to me i know my channels dumb but bare with me
''If its Online its True''
The Modern Rogue heyyyyy love your vids i have been watching Brian on Scam School since it started since he was on the other UA-cam channel
I still think you need to learn to slide across the hood of a car
10:35 Oh no, they're actually learning. Soon they'll actually know what the hell they're doing. The channel is ruined.
LESS THAN TWO MINUTES LATER: Oh thank god.

@@Tunkkis backyard bowyer is the OG pvc bowyer
I know a lot of people will be down on your accuracy. You shot yourself in the hand. Hawkeye couldn't have made that shot. I'm just saying.
Steve Mayne lol!
The power of the bow comes from the fact that its a completely straight stick bent with a string so it already has potential energy
I was actually hopeful when they mentioned a recurve and recurve string .. then they attached it to the wrong side without actually bending the bow... apparently they wanted to make a bow without even the most BASIC level of understanding of how/why bows work, or even a quick Google search of how to string one... although he mentioned that he'd seen videos of people making them... so I guess he saw the videos without taking ANY of the information on??

they kinda acknowledged that in the video
You guys really need to re-do this. For science.
Droop Snoot They hearted it, so heres to hoping
The kind with differing lengths of fiberglass rods inside for more draw weight.
@@ApplejackDaniels and recurve isn't that hard to make, there are a few videos that do a pretty good job of explaining how
@@ApplejackDaniels if they didn't heat up again it would have been plenty of draw weight. Some PVC are 100 lbs+

But seriously. In a world where hords of people are waiting to pick on imperfection online you guys are happy to wing it.

There are two spaces between where and hordes. Also hordes is misspelled.
yeah ffs its hordes you idiot
im kidding
You dummy it is it's
Still It hey Jesse! Last video I would have expected to find a comment of yours on
I love these guys, they are funny as hell. i really don't care if what they make is amusingly jankie, it fun to watch :)
As an Archery coach from the uk, this is a great coaching video on what not to do.

You should start with learning how to shoot a longbow than have a go at Popinjay.
Thanks for the encouragement! Feel free to hit us up with suggestions at modernrogueshow@gmail.com. Looking forward to revisiting this!
But there were 2 injuries
why would you want to make a long bow, go for the challenge and make a mongolian bow
J noted that they were shooting the arrow on the wrong side of the bow.
Jacob Bothast the “wrong” side isnt really the “wrong” side, theres people who prefer shooting it opposite, there are people that use right handed bows on their right hand (rather then holding the string)
Its weird...
Technically not the proper way and honestly this could have ended really bad 😂, also it was already curved inward, i dont know much about longbows and Mongolian bows but my recurve and others are curved outward and curve inward when strung 😂

Seriously, good job guys. That was fun to watch. Be careful with that short-range shooting.
thanks, man!
We're like a few episodes away from "Modern Rogue learns to LARP"
I mean we had them fight with swords quarterstaffs and daggers. So I wouldn't be suprised
I would watch that :)
I would totally be in for that!
You have come up with a great Modern Rogue video idea.
I want to watch that.
That bow: better than nothing. Probably the most I can say about it. Love it.
Haha- thanks!
They may have had better luck if they just threw the arrows at the target.
The spirit of pure, nerdy fun in all these videos has been a very refreshing change of pace for me. Keep up the good work, guys
Okay we've got mounted archery... now we know how to make a bow... Next we learn how to break a wild horse and we can basically start a Mongolian Horde FROM SCRATCH!
PS Elderberry Trees make great improvised bows. They grow all over in the south, really flexible, lightweight.
Richard Powell your mother is a hamster!
The Modern Rogue:
Creating a new empire.
They have to learn how to make a horse first
Andrew Gan with a capital in Hawaii
Davis Tuck if this video is anything to go by, them making a horse will be horrifying and hilarious.
I love seeing them do things badly; it's exactly what would happen in my garage and they get all the injuries. It's the perfect "don't try this at home" method as there's literally no reason. You guys are great!
Thanks!
Seriously though, this is one of the best produced UA-cam shows out there and one of my favourites. If it didn't mean getting gouged, I'd say it belongs on

EDIT: As in put the arrow at the side of where your hand is that is holding the bow
No disrespect but their stance was terrible 😂
Except they had the arrow on the wrong side the whole time
They did a mix of two techniques, didn't really work because of that
Not gunna lie, It sounds like I would be a huge fan of Groknar.
From Hacking the System, to Legend Testers, to Bad Builders. I would watch all of it (already watched the first one, the other two might be as good, if not better). I damn love this show so much!
Yes!

A right-handed shooter crosses the arrow to the left side of the bow, and vice-versa for left-handed shooters. You can't look down the arrow if it is not aligned with the bow, permanently aiming to the right.
Aha! Yeah. We definitely should learn proper archery techniques.
Not all archers shot with the arrow crossing sides. The mongolians had the arrow on the same side.
Many eastern styles of archery have it shot from the right side as it allowed them to fire off arrows faster. Aiming was more about intuition and instinctive while western styles usually had it on the left side. Obviously, they aren't experienced in archery so having the arrow on the left would have been better for this since it is easier to pick up.
what side you place your arrow on is personal opinion, also looking down an arrow is plain impractical
Well, technically this can be countered by using your thumb draw. Which i suspect was the way they were learning the horse archery.
The editing on this episode is beautiful. I found myself cackling every couple of minutes between the shenanigans of our rogues and the smug sarcasm of their video editor. Brandt, you're awesome
waiting for the Modern Rogue learns to treat an arrow wound, episode
ya going to the ER is going to be a whole episode

There's a lot to unpack from that moment.
I'd love to see you guys learn a lot more about archery them come back and retry making a bow.
Great video but I don't know whether its the weapons/tools that are more dangerous or the Jason/Brian combination that's more dangerous
Accurate
24:20 When the dummy fires back 😂😂😂
I liked when you revisited the potato cannon. So I'd love an Episode where you improve the PVC Bow and maybe test it on the homemade Body Armor. Or maybe you also try making flaming arrows or something.
Please also do an Episode on Disguises. You'd both come up with an disguise and to test them you might meet at a cafe or something. While one of you puts on their disguise in the cafe's restroom the other leaves the cafe and sits down on a bench around the corner.
The person on the bench would wear a vest or a coat with about 3-5 decent sized buttons. Of which he would unbutton any number he wants. The disguised person than has to walk past the person on the bench, count the buttons and walk around the next corner. From there he has to text the number of still buttoned buttons to win.
The guy on the bench maybe has to take a picture of the disguised guy to prove that he recognised him. Or he just calls him out when he walks by. Either way is fine.
Then you'd switch roles.
Heh. That sounds like fun. I've been trying to structure a disguise episode for a while now.
I love the "lore bits" or whatever you wanna call em! (Ex. DAVE intro and bow stats.)
Why would you give it a curve? It takes away a lot of the force
Waaruum Daaruum it helps with pressure equalisation
Because they have no idea what they’re doing. That’s what makes this amazing, it’s all about guys with no experience and knowledge just giving it a go
I'm cringing. You guys did everything wrong. That was great. I love your videos.
Dustin the WIN! Still wasn't the "simplest way" I made mine a few years ago with a thinner pipe, paracord, and a file. Just cut notches in each end and tied the cord. Works great.
Alex Lawson You can put fiberglass rods inside to increase power as well
I was actually planning on doing that but decided I didn't need the extra power. Instead, since I didn't have any arrows, I cut the rods into arrow length.
p.s. bad idea. my hands were covered in fiberglass slivers xD
Alex Lawson oof, fiberglass slivers are the worst
also they bouce into your face
3:50 "How bad do you think the chemicals we're inhaling are ?" Well, when burnt PVC creates hydrochloric acid, but I'm sure i didn't get hot enough for that right? ...right?
The atmosphere in this episode was great enough that I don't even care if the bow couldn't kill orcs reliably.
I made bows out of PVC pipe for electrical installations when I was a kid back in the '70s. I can guarantee it was a real weapon. A 2 " nail at the end of a wooden rod was perfect for an arrow. Bricklayers rope served perfectly and were durable.
What happened to the card shotgun? You know, from the prison build video?
Ive been waiting sooo long for this one and im going to go out on a limb and say the injury counter is gonna be reset
Edit: ways you could improve it 1. heat the end sections in one go and use a long bit of wood to get an even taper 2. use a round file and cut the grooves at an angle to hold the string better 3. tape on an arrow rest to help when aiming 4. *LEARN ARCHERY BETTER!!!*
You sir, called it
God making me
My looks: this will be the straight part
Everything else: and then that
It hurts seeing you guys with the fletching the wrong way round. I'm sure you destroyed a couple of feathers and didn't get why, right?
Probably. You see the horseback archery episodes we did?
Actually I think that's the only one I haven't seen, not counting cocktail videos.
They made a good larping bow
As an ex-archer i am having SO much fun.
Absolutely love every single video.
Bad Builders - would subscribe
A really advanced special force with high tech weapons vs. one plastic shooty boi
ZNA productions reference?
I own an english style longbow and when its un-extended its just as flat as a plank of wood.
yeah - cause its an actual bow...
Some tips for future archery endeavors. Use feather fetching instead of plastic vanes. The feathers collapse as they pass the riser (where your hand is on the bow) and don't kick out as bad. Secondly, when using your fingers instead of a thumb draw, you want to place the arrow on the top of your knuckles on your bow hand. Lastly, avoid bulky gloves as they prevent a smooth release.
Oh, and keep that elbow up...straight line from bow hand to elbow.
This went from 2 guys shooting a bow to pillow review
28:30 It's the Pulp Fiction briefcase. Turns out it was buckwheat
I'm sorry DAVE, I'm afraid they have to do this...
You guys deff made a thing!!! N it is undoubtedly having the functionality of the bows ... ALL THE BOWS!!!!! *T.M.R.-4- Lyfe*
The reason there's one larger loop on the bowstring is that some bows are strung by sliding the larger loop down the arm of the bow, fitting the smaller loop at the end of the other arm and then, when you bend the bow, you slide the large loop up the arm and into the retaining slots - rather than trying to bend the bow far enough to get the loop over the _end_ of the arm.
I love so much that the beginning started with Jason being afraid of altering the integrity of the pvc and then they later decide to heat it to curve the unit and decrease the draw power of it. I love how much improvising you guys do 😂 I’ve wanted to work with you guys so long you’re so funny
Side note. I do have one that I built a couple years ago that I learned from ZNA Productions
Brian, don’t leave the bow strung, it’s not good for it. Especially with PVC, at room temp it’s slightly pliable, and if you refrigerate it, it becomes brittle. So definitely don’t leave it strung. Just a tip. Also, I expect that only you read the comments. Sorry, Jason.
LJTwiggy the opposite. Jason often comments from his own account that's all.
*I don't mean to leave it strung that will destroy the little strength it has I meant that Jason is who reads the comments usually not Brian
Corvo Attano That WAS a joke-I think-but thanks, I didn’t know that. Good for you for knowing that.
You guys should have zna productions on, he makes a bunch of stuff like the pvc bow in this vid and weapons
Should've done 1/2 inch, I used to make these all the time and you can easily get 40lb draw with the effectiveness of a 75lb
And you're right handed so put the arrow on the left side of the bow and slightly tilt it
"yeah lets do it"

*”Woah it’s working....I wasn’t expecting that.” Perfect quote for this show*
You guys are great! 👍👍
You guys are great! 👍👍
you should check out ZNA productions, on his channel he puts fiberglass rods in the pvc to increase the draw weight of the bow, he has done multiple designs.
Jonathan Otten but if you did the stringing like how they did it it would break if you do this use the in-between the leg method
true, by actually bending the PVC instead of heating it up and forming it, it should already become more powerful
THANK YOU BRIAN AND MURPHY!!!! YOU JUST REPLACED ALL MY OTHER UA-cam CHANNELS!!! 😄😄😄😄
Outstanding!
This episode was so laid back, I loved it
The whole episode could be related directly to trying to adult properly with no supervision or guidance, way to go guys.
If u guys do this again checkout a video by zna productions on pvc bows it's really good
That's where I learned how to make my first PVB bow
You guys read my mind. He also has a video on the recuve
For anyone else coming back through this comment chain, also check out the Backyard Bowyer. His entire channel is pretty much just about making bows out of pvc. He's a master at it. ZNA is pretty good too, but he's more like adept than master.
Bruh, *the same day as **_The King of Random._* Love your vids
That one Guy true, but there is a big difference on how they made it
Bjma DK Yeah, TKoR actually knew what he was doing.
true. Same concept
ZNA Productions was the first person to make a video on this kind of DIY pvc bow.
Beets and Cheese i dont care about that. Its just more or less about the fact it was the same day as another channel im subbed to.
You guys did great! :D
I've made some recurve PVC bows myself, can recommend Backyard Bowyer if you didn't find it already.
Good job on the aluminium foil heat reflector!
GREAT VIDEO!
Best way to learn is to learn from your mistakes... and in this video we learn from their mistakes lol.. ive been watching diy pvc bow videos all week and i usually have the same questions after each video. These guys basically answered every small in between step questions that i had thought up frequently. Liked and Subscribed...
--Id say watch the video that has the most legit bow to your choosing. and then watch this video after you have the first one memorized basically//ready to start.
Realized recently why I love this channel so much; it's like a UA-cam Mythbusters! (My most favorite show ever!)
In the out-takes, Brian and Jason get fought off by a Dungeons and Dragons Master wielding a lightbulb.
The Modern Rogue The heat gun looked dangerous though (in your hands) ;)
As an archer, how much am I legally allowed to cringe?
Only 8%.
9% on leap years.
Ikr I love this channel but this video hurts me on many levels
I guess I’m now officially a fugitive then...
harvey jones I think you’re legally obligated to cringe.
“You guys are great!” (🤗)
I’ve built many pvc bows before. And this was painful. I love everything you guys do and this was really entertaining. But painful.
My brothers and I have been using PVC bows for our own version of LARP that we play; at one point we put foam pads on curtain hangers to use as arrows.
coincidentally The King Of Random just uploaded a pvc bow video .
Jay Zee he probably did way better, didn't he?
ZNA Productions made a video on how to make this bow in 2016.
It happened to Jake Roper (VSauce3) and CGP Grey a while ago. Here's what Jake had to say about it. ua-cam.com/video/_xhutlgZwv4/v-deo.html
Apple Juuce man... i love zna. I wantched him way way way before he changed his name
I prefer these guys for several reasons but one in particular: Modern Rogue puts their ads at the very end of the video. KoR shoves a five to ten minute mattress commercial RIGHT IN THE FUCKING MIDDLE of his videos.
Being really into archery this was incredibly painful to watch.
*You guys are great* 😋
Seriously though J & B you guys are awesome and funny to watch. Love scam school and modern rogue can't wait for every new episode.
Should have brought Backyard Bowyer to this show. He's very adept and has a couple of books on building bows from PVC. Learned a lot from his videos.
I am a little ashamed that you guys had to ask for me to let you know how great I think you are. You both are truly awesome!
You guys are great👍👍
My History Professor would start every class period with a Sniglet and to this day it has always been my favorite class
you know kids next door with their If im correct, two by four tech? we need what this channel does, PVC tech in the PVC age XD! just everything is PVC lol.
I really enjoyed this video. And, while I haven't made a pvc bow myself, I have a few suggestions that could help. First, with as easy as it was to bend, you probably could make a recurve without much trouble, and not only will it improve the power of the bow, it'll be less likely for the acting to slide off. Two, if you don't have a dremel tool (why wouldn't you, they are awesome!) you should definitely invest in one and get some carving bits. You could, for example, use one to make a quick, smooth notch for the string that's less likely to wear out the loop of the string. Third, if you're shooting right-handed (and not on horse back), the arrow goes along the left side of the bow, not the right. Fourth, you really should work on your form to get more consistent shooting (not that what you were doing want fun to watch). Fifth, after making the bow, find out what the draw weight is so you can get the right arrows for it. The last one is a bit complicated, but the reason has to do with what's called the archer's paradox. When launched from a bow, arrows bend back and forth...meaning the tip doesn't go in a straight line. All arrows have a spine rating which determines how much that happens based mainly on the weight off the bow. You actually want some "bendiness" as the string and shaft are in line which causes the arrow to get deflected, which the "bendiness" corrects for (simplified explication). Again, I think this was talked about in the mounted archery episode. Anyway, I'd love to see an episode where you revisit now making and see if you can improve on your pvc bow. Basically, I'm hoping you can manage to more effectively shot the dummy (and not reset the injury counter 😝).
Brian is either super comfortable after his vacation or he is wasted. Edit: yeah, I'm definitely leaning. Plus you guys had way too much fun in this one. Good Production.
