Bits and pieces of a 48" Yumi Hankyu being built using the Fibonacci ratio in the working limbs. Purple Plum tip overlays, an Ironwood handle overlay (shaped to allow a 65° open hand tilt that Japanese bows like best), and Pacific Yew as the working bow. Almost ready for the glue up. . . . #bushcraft #wildernessliving #selfreliance #selftaught #artisan #mountainman #naturalist #woodsman #handmade #handcraft #woodcraft #naturalmaterials #bowmaking #bowyer #archery #traditionalarchery #traditionalbowyer #primitiveskills #vancouverisland #pacificnorthwest #pnw #pnwbc #selfrespect #selflove #bowsnarrows #yumihankyu #yumi #plumwood #oceanspray #ironwood
