No chance. The limbs are too stiff. They cannot be bent far enough as a longbow to allow a draw. The pulleys give draw length for very little limb deflection. Not how a traditional bow works at all.

Search and rescue perhaps. Security patrol. Seeing and scaring unwanted wildlife.

Bump and price reduction.

hopefully the photos make it a little clearer. I suspect there are several ways you could wrap the drill to get the desired configuration of wrap, position relative to bow and cord and having the hearth end on the bottom

I cannot be sure whether you are lifting the bow hand and getting an angle, the perspective makes it difficult, but it does look like the cord wrap is always tight or overlapping, and since you say you are getting a lot of cord breaking, this could be a cause.

Other observation. In this shot, the bow hand fingers do not wrap around the string. Wrapping around the string is a way that allows tension to be increased if the string starts to slip.

Now, I tend to wrap my drill in with the hearth end towards me, BUT, I generally try to have my bow stroke really horizontal, so it doesn't matter much. Doing the wrap this way means that if you drill with bow angled down a bit, so that the end of the bow tends to bump the ground, you close up...

Try twisting the drill into the string the other way around. If you have been consistently doing it the way you show in your video, you are causing the cord to rub against itself as it goes round the drill. Your bow stroke has your bow hand higher than the far end of the bow, but the cord...

It is worth pointing out that not everywhere that advertises something as "Smurf Poo" is actually the same stuff. https://bolgers.co.uk/collections/buffing-polishing https:// youtu.be/hZSen2d475Y?si=SNVJyKMcfdVd2FCt&t=176 (sorry, owner blocks video embedding, so linking to the 3:14 point is...

I hadn’t realised he was that close to 18. That makes it even more obscene that the government is pointing at the attack then saying they are taking steps to pr3vent similar by making it even harder for under age buying. The young man made a bio weapon in his kitchen! No law was going to stop...

Hi Billy, Moved to Edged Tools Classifieds. In the Full Members Classified area the listing is visible only to Full Members, whereas here it is visible to everyone. More chance of finding a buyer this way. Cheers Chris

Okay....maybe don't look at HPG then ;)

Have a look at Hill People Gear. They are expensive, most likely more than you want to spend, but you might as well have a look at some pack porn while you are shopping around. The old Connor pack was a good small day pack with docking to a larger pack cabability.

Craghopper Kiwi, in the tight weave poly cotton have been excellent. Some of the best fabric out there. Very hard wearing, fairly thorn resistant. Double layer in key areas. Helikon Tex, Urban Tactical Pants, and Outdoor Tactical Pants. Not as durable as the Kiwis, but more pockets and for...

I have more kitchen knives than I need or use regularly. This is because I have been given knives I never use, and have made knives that replace previously used ones. Functionally, I use: Either a 10 inch VG10 core chef’s knife, or a 7 inch Hitachi Blue Steel core santoku. I almost never...

Hello and welcome neighbour.

I don't believe there is a general “right” number of kitchen knives since it is dependent on what the individual prepares, how often, and their preference. I have had a lot of conversations with people who rave about their kitchen knives who haven't actually used a high performance blade and...

Ben Orford does a nice chef knife, don’t know about a set. Expensive. I had a look at one at a show last May. Nicely made. Thin enough. These look good. A shop local to my parents stock some. https://www.savernakeknives.co.uk/product-category/kitchen-knives/ If I was buying from a maker...

More specifically but less dramatically, no, it does not have a use by date. I have some I bought and some I collected from at least 15 years ago, probably more. The resin is solid at room temperature. One is not relying on volatile compounds that evaporate. What it does benefit from is...
