The old stock design includes actual size nut and trigger that was used on the first crossbow I made with this stock design.














I also included actual size nut and trigger on this PDF. Below is a screen shot from my YouTube video that feature this trigger and nut.

Prod for New Crossbow

This is the prod I will be using temporarily on my new crossbow until I find a more suitable option.






















































































The limbs were made of the front end of cross country skis. The cams were made of two roofing plates as shown in the last video these should be found at any hardware store or roofing outlet. The brackets holding the cams were made of a thick gauge sheet metal (not sure of the gauge exactly), and the string of some yellow nylon rope (will be swapped out latter for something else was thinking of the pull cord from an old lawn mower). The riser made of wood not sure what kind. Hope this helps anyone looking for prod options this cost about $10 to put together and is about 50lb draw. I may wrap the limbs in fibre glass and resin later to try and make it stronger. I will post any and all results

Cheers!
Please stay tuned. More to come.

Cheers!
