- SN002 Bow build: • DIY PVC Bow (re)build ...
Have you ever wanted to build your own PVC Recurve bow? A friend of mine tried, it took him 7 hours with the help of 4 other friends (~30 man hours!??!?!) and he failed. I looked at his failed attempts and was confident I could do it in an hour. He allotted me 80 minutes, I accepted the challenge, I believe I accomplished the challenge, and he asked me not to disclose his identity. BWAHAHAHA!!!
Long story short, here's my bow!
Special thanks to Yuli, and Rong for the help getting some of the footage, it was fun.; annonymous bag man--for bringing comedic joy to the world; Sailor Moon B for your help and for the superb hand modeling; and of course thanks to everyone I bugged for input while I struggled to figure out how to put this video together. It's been real fun!
Shout out to Backyard Bowyer, if it wasn't for him there would not be the world of PVC bows there is today! Respect!

Liked your video
4:08 yo dropped the sexiest pvc bow edit anyone’s ever seen and thought we wouldn’t notice
You're welcome. And thank you for noticing 😋
@@liveandletfly no no thank you for this masterpiece way ahead of ur time when it was made
your amount of string walking is insane
As a general rule I like keeping things always at a healthy sane level of insane!
Good bow
Thank you! :-D
Hi mate I'm interested to buy one have you got a website I can order from
How long was the straight pipe ? About 2m?
Finished bow height was around 62 inches. 1.58m. The raw PVC sells in 10ft sections! 3M
So could the arms be made out of pvc and the handle out of a dowle?
Never thought about that before! it'd be a reaply quick way to change limb strengths / draw weight too!!!! I might have to start scheming now…
@@liveandletfly well glad to be of help
Would have liked to have known the poundage of finished bow.
ah! It ended up being around 30lbs for this one! Depending on exact draw length! pulls at about 32lbs for my 28in draw! Video of a 50lb bow coming soon!
😂😂😊😊❤❤❤
I'm just letting you know, I am going to "steal" your idea. ;)
Pics or it didn't happen!!!! Doooooooo it!
@@liveandletfly That's true.
Wait was that Rita?
A hero never reveals her true identity…
I'm sorry to give a negative review, but not on the arc, but on the film shot very fast to the point of not understanding the procedure. Of course you had to do it in a minute but not in the film, and then the shadows not well lit did not make you understand the succession of the various passages. However, the arc made is beautiful and I think it works well !!!
Don't be sorry, be happy! Comments and suggestions is how I learn, grow, and improve! This was my first attempt, I've since made others, and I've tried to improve with each new process!
What do you think of the lighting, narration, and editing of this SN3 long bow? 😁 ua-cam.com/video/d4l6a5N1REo/v-deo.html

You write about everything, but you didn't write what pipe you used.
😱😱😱😱😱 Oops… 0.75 inch PVC schedule 40 electrical conduit. I think… I have used thinner ones for weaker bows or for smaller hands, and I've made larger ones for stronger hands also, they come in many different diameters! It's been a while since I made this bow, maybe I need to make more soon!!!! It should be something like this: www.homedepot.ca/product/carlon-schedule-40-grey-pvc-conduit-3-4-in-x-10-ft-/1000101188
Thanks dude!
@@liveandletfly thank You
@@masahuku5673 You're very welcome! Have a fantastic day! And go make some holes!!! 😁
This is not $4, you used power tools so you have to also count them in.
oooh! Challenge accepted! Can I use firewood? A broken chunk of concrete?
Bro is this legal in sports
always check rules and regulations of any competition before registering! I have had one tournament that specifically bans PVC material for handmade bows! :-D Each tournament and group/organization will have different rules!
