Making a Christmas Tree Bow - DIY Woodworking Project

From stave to the bow - building a black locust self bow using hand tools. It's my first try at scalloped bow design (challenging one!). Hope you will enjoy this special Christmas vibe video. Happy Holidays guys!

Merry Christmas guys! Thank you so much for watching!

You've inspired my woodworking a lot (and not just the way I make bows, you've influenced my wood removal and shaping techniques for everything from bo staffs to boomerangs.) I was woodworking for years prior to discovering your channel, but you've basically revolutionized the way I operate; you're always dropping some cool , little trick to expedite the process. It's amazing the way you take something very un-uniform like a raw stave, and convert it into a very uniform primitive weapon. You're product is so consistent, it appears as though your bows were produced on an assembly line! Much respect

Also, the way you basically defy physics by doing something like scalloping a bow without compromising the integrity of the limbs is amazing. You're a magician, sir

I posted this on your "shorts" but it needs to be said again on your main page...
Besides your creativity and willingness / desire to push the limits of bow design, whether they're practical or not... My favorite thing about your channel is the simplicity of your "shop" and tools. You don't have a 2,000 Sq foot workshop filled with $500,000 worth of tools, while telling your viewers that "anyone can do it. " or "it's not that difficult to do."
Keep up the good work, I appreciate what you do. Merry Christmas.

I missed this at Christmas somehow, but watching it now was still worth it. Always love seeing your videos, happy holidays!
I am also curious, do the wobbly edges have any effect on the bow at all or are they decorative only?

Nice bow and merry Christmas from India

Merry christmas and happy new years, amigo. Im excited to see where your channel goes from here, and hope you get the recognition you deserve. Youre inspiring people to make bows, and that is the true mark of somebody who genuinely loves their craft. The people who gatekeep their hobbies and crafts dont love the art, they love the exclusivity. Either way, thank you, ive made a few bows since watching your vids, and i plan to make a few more after the holidays. Gonna pick up a few staves online to practice with some actual decent bow material hahaha
