daohead's embedded Photo



Since people asked me for the plan for the Bowstring Jig i made recently, I drew one up and made a PDF of it... but, since only JPGs can be added to posts, you will have to download from http://daohea d.com/docs/daojig.pdf.

Thanks for the info. I printed a copy to use as a template. Never made a string so I'm not familiar with the material nor "how to" particularly the servings. Is there reference data including strands per pound, etc?

Okay, for some reason the posts are adding spaces into the link address so they aren't working... you will have to copy the address and paste it in your browser address window... and remove the space that is added in...
