Hey folks,
I'm wondering about what to do first in making my crossbow. I have some 1 1/4"x 1/4" fiberglass flat bar. It is Extren brand, unidirectional structural stuff from work. Anyway, I'm thinking about a three leaf stack prod and Skane type (I guess is what it's called, with the peg in the hole...) But I don't know whether to build the prod first then the tiller or what.
When I build the prod how do I determine the brace height, and the draw length? The stuff is in the garage and I can't remember the lengths but I'm thinking the long one will be 28-30 inches...
I guess once I have the draw length the location of the peg is self evident and the rest of the tiller can go from there.
Anyway, any advice or thoughts?
Thanks!
