All hands on deck - Can I do this?

Postby teagus on Thu Jul 29, 2010 8:16 pm

Lucky for me Trux agreed to take a crossbow if I crash and burn.

Can I take this Western Pennsylvania urban legend and turn it into a hunting bow?

Designed in the late 60's. Only six prototypes made. Plan is to design the insert out of a high strength moldable material. Three different wrist grips interchangeble. 3d modeling. Stereolithography models of molded parts. Feral consult :lol: Bow form design to be a conjunction form that will produce a working bow without the inset or structural buttress. Basic hunting bow design will be Pirated. :twisted: Shirt size 2xl :P

Oops, forgot to mention this eliminates hand torque. Also, the front stablizer boss might get a laser :P
