I just got my first project bow from bingham. It's not as hard as you might think. I haven't started yet, but with the video it makes it look easy. A quick word if you buy from bingham, don't get the $55.00 drillling jig because a $20.00 dowling jig works. I paid 160 for a bow kit with everything from epoxy to strings and stringers. I borrowed the press jig and oven, but they can be made cheaper than being bought. I think making bows is the funnest part of archery, except that 2seconds when you see that arrow pass through a deer.
