Building a Centershot Warbow!

I'm starting with two epoxy fiberless strips which are 6.8 millimeter thick, 44 millimeters wide and 53 centimeters long. And for the riser I will use multiple pieces of balau wood which I will reinforce with unidirectional fiberless strip which is 8 millimeters thick. I also have cut this riser block at the angle so the bow will have some reflex. If we put fiberless in the middle as we make arrow shelf we would cut completely through it. So that's the reason why I will put it offset. Now I'm gluing the riser pieces together and I will let that cure the riser. I sand this part that will be glued. Epoxy doesn't like smooth surface. Now it's time to glue this riser overlay. But I want to reinforce the riser block further with some fiberless and carbon. So I will clamp these two pieces of melamine to prevent fibers from running out of the joint. I covered these pieces of melamine with packing tape that will prevent the epoxy from sticking to them. For this I'm using some leftover pieces of unidirectional fiberless and carbon. That will add a lot of strength to our riser. And since we are making the center shot bow any additional strength is more than welcome. Now I'm cutting c.s from the same balau wood. They will be 26 centimeters long. I will also mark the middle of the c.s and rip them with the band saw. And fill them with carbon fiber. That will reinforcement. But I like to put some additional reinforcement especially for the high poundage bow like this one. Just be sure to use some strong wood like ash, beech, oak or something like that. This bankirai or balau wood is quite strong and it's pretty easy to find for me. That's the reason why I like to use it. People usually use this wood for decking and garden stakes. Because this wood as I can. CA glue is used to fix this c.s temporarily. Later I will reinforce everything. Now I'm tapering the bow limbs from the 44 millimeters as the fades to the 20 millimeters at the c.s joint. And then to just 10 millimeters as the tips. I will use this piece to reinforce this section here. Because here will be the arrow shelf and we need a lot of strength in this part. So I will put some epoxy here and I will use few pieces of fiberless cloth to fill any potential with the nylon cord. I think this is the strongest way to do this. But if you're making lighter poundage bow you can just wrap the joint with some twine and cover with CA glue. But in this case I'm using both carbon fiber and the cord wrap. And also epoxy instead of CA glue. So I'm wrap here and here. And also inlay fiberless wrap here. That will prevent this riser from explosion. And it will be flush with the handle. Now I'm wrapping the fades with the fiberless and epoxy resin. This is quite important step because otherwise the riser and the limbs can separate when the bow is under pressure. I like to compress the fiberless with the woven elastic. It also grooves will be reinforced with carbon fiber strips. This bow will have double nocks that will allow me to use the stringer. Which is probably the easiest way to string super heavy bows. At this point the bow is too stiff so I will remove some material. I decided to go with black handle and black wraps. As for the limbs I will just spray clear coat and leave the natural color of fiberless. It looks really cool. Reminds me of the glass weapons from Skyrim. Poundage is about the future video. Arrows are 33 inches long and they weigh 1500 grams.
