Wooden handle (apricot tree) for a bow made out of skis;)







Bows made out of the skis




This wooden handle came from  apricot tree.It  has been carved manually, at the end what was left from  rasping, this was done with a small sand-paper machine, it saved a lot of time!!




Here, you can notice a small crack just at the end where the end of ski are attached/screwed to the handle, metalic ring was used to secure it aswell for the rest of the handle, let's stay on save side;)


Limbs are equally bent, well done!!;))




Finished touch with a piece of leather which came out of a jacket.


















This bow was actually the 1st. made from the skis, it's already a history as it got broken;(
