There are many ways to make a bow out of PVC pipe. There are sophisticated ones that require a lot of time and effort. There are simple, convenient ones that allow you to make crafts quickly and get a quality product.

For example, for the manufacture of a non-separable bow structure, a PVC pipe of about one and a half meters in length and a diameter of 25 mm is required. From the materials you will still need a wooden board, paint, adhesive tape, aluminum foil. Tools used in the work: hair dryer (well technical); measuring tape; drill; felt-tip pen; hand saw.

Start by marking the pipe. Mark with a felt-tip pen from its both ends segments 30, 60 cm long, as well as the center (middle). In addition, 8 cm segments are measured from the center in both directions.

One of the edges of the pipe 60 cm long begins to be heated with a hairdryer. Do this evenly along the length, constantly turning the pipe around the axis. After the material has become pliable, the pipe is laid on a flat board, the unheated end is raised by a quarter of the diameter, placing a lining under it. A board is placed on top of the heated end, pressed down - you can become legs. As a result, a workpiece is obtained, in which the pipe remains round in the middle part, and with a narrow elliptical section at the end.

Then everything described is done with the other end of the pipe. At the same time, it is fixed so that flattening occurs in the same plane as the first section. In addition, before starting the deformation, the opposite end (which is already flattened) is raised by half the diameter of the pipe. After that, a blank is obtained in which the middle part (approximately 25 ... 30 cm) remains round in cross section, and from it to the edges the cross section changes smoothly from round to elliptical, the latter occurring symmetrically in both areas).

When heating a PVC pipe, it must not be allowed to heat up quickly and unevenly. If this is allowed, then the material will lose elasticity and the craft will not turn out to be of high quality.

After that, a section 15 cm long and 15 cm from the end of the pipe is heated with a hair dryer until it becomes round again. After it is positioned so that the previously flattened sections of the pipe are perpendicular to the support. A board 15 cm long is applied to the heated area and flattened. The same is done with a 15 cm section on the other side of the tubular blank.

On the final 15-centimeter sections of the pipe, cuts are made on the outside of the bow. Their distance from the ends is 3 cm. The slots are heated, rounded off, loaded through wooden blocks. You can make them rounded with sandpaper.

Again, sections of the pipe are heated near 30-centimeter marks - their total length is about 8 cm. When heated, they will expand, the transition section will become smooth. As a result, an even tubular billet is obtained, in which the ends are bent in one direction.

Question: "How to make a bow out of PVC pipes with your own hands?" many ask. It is not at all difficult to make beautiful home-made weapons from this building material. The material below contains detailed information on how to quickly make a great bow and arrow, and also describes the advantages of such a homemade design.

The bow is a weapon. Since ancient times, it has been used to hunt wild animals. More than one year and more than one millennium has passed since the invention of this device. During this time, the mechanism of the bow has been improved and improved.

The modern bow, when compared with the ancient "relative", is distinguished by the presence of new materials, accuracy and range of shots.

A confirmation of this is a bow made of PVC pipes from craftsman Maxim Egorov. A lawyer from St. Petersburg became the record holder for watching his videos on YouTube, where he tells how to make chairs from rope and plastic bottles, how to make a bow from PVC pipe, how to make a phone case from a water trough. In a few months, this folk master has become a real YouTube star.

What are the advantages of such a homemade design:

• Despite the large size, the bow made of PVC pipe blanks is very easy to transport. This is possible thanks to the prefabricated structure. After disassembly, such a device, along with arrows, can be placed in a quiver.
• The small weight of the device puts it above the factory analogues for hunting.
• High strength. Such a bow is much stronger than a homemade device made of wood.
• If a silencer is installed on the bowstring of such a device, then the shots fired by such a bow will be silent.
• If such a device is equipped with a shako, then the combat performance of the bow will increase. It increases the rate of fire and reduces the time to prepare for firing.

Manufacturing process

Previously, a certain type of wood was used for such a device. Nowadays, this issue can be solved much easier. All you need is two blanks of PVC pipes (approximately 1.5 meters each).

The width of such a pipe can be different. The dimensions of the pipe blank affect the power of the structure.

Tools needed for the job:

• screwdriver;
• self-tapping screws;
• jigsaw;
• drill.

The bow itself consists of three parts. In the center of the mechanism there is a handle, on the sides - shoulders and a bowstring. All this reinforces the internal insert.

Work sequence:

• Pipes are cut so that their length is the same.
• A handle to the bow is cut out of wood, two prepared blanks will be attached to it.
• Having prepared the handle, you do not need to rush to fasten the workpieces. They need to be prepared first. To this end, grooves are cut in the end part of the pipes, they will contain blocks that are needed for high-quality stretching of the bowstring.
• Shoulder attachment. Two prepared pipes will be the shoulders of the bow. It's not hard to attach them. This is easy to do with a few screws. All fastenings must be made securely.
• The ends of the shoulders are slightly warmed up and bend to the outside.
• Small notches are made at the ends of the shoulders. They will serve as a place for attaching the bowstring.
• The string needs to be pulled very tight. It is recommended to use a strong rope that is resistant to stretching and deformation as a bowstring.

Appearance styling

Not everyone attaches great importance to this nowadays, but in ancient times every hunter who owned a bow decorated it in various ways. A special meaning was invested in such decoration. Each even the smallest detail of the decoration was endowed with great meaning.

A homemade device will become especially individual if it is designed to your liking. Bows are decorated in the following ways:

• Staining with special paint for plastic.
• Covering with fabrics and impregnation with polymer. An amateur hunter will be distinguished by a bow covered with camouflage fabric. This design not only decorates the product, but also increases its power. Plastic after such a coating easily tolerates low temperatures, does not break or crack.

For decoration, you can use anything you like, but you must not forget that the design cannot be overloaded.

Arrows

Arrows are needed to test the operation of the device. They can be purchased, or you can make it yourself, which once again highlights the individuality of your bow.

• Everyone determines the length of the arrow for himself. It is best to use glazing beads for the arrow. You just need to choose them without knots. Their side should be 1 cm.
• From the glazing bead, you need to make a round shaft, which is brought to an ideal state first with coarse-grained sandpaper, and then fine-grained.
• Then a tip is made. It is best to make the tip of thin steel and put it in the prepared socket on the glue.
• After that, a cut is made for the bowstring. Its depth is approximately 6 mm.
• Plumage for arrows. It can be made from paper, plastic, tape, and even bird feathers. Turkey feathers are considered the best option for plumage for arrows.
• At the end, the plumage can be painted. Everything here will depend on personal priorities.

block mechanism

Now, how to make a bow from PVC pipes and arrows is clear. As you can see from the description, there is nothing complicated about this. And now it's time to consider how a compound bow is made from PVC pipe.

For work you will need:

• PVC blanks;
• rollers (2 pcs.);
• wooden board;
• jigsaw;
• string;
• toothbrush.

Stages of work:

• First, the shoulders for the bow are made from PVC pipes. Two blanks of 45 cm are prepared for them.
• Next, saw the edges of the blanks and insert two rollers there.
• On the other hand, a through hole for bolts is made on each blank.
• Handle. On a board made of wood with a jigsaw, cut out the desired pattern. On both sides of the handle, workpieces are fixed with self-tapping screws.
• Bowstring. One end is attached to the extreme part of the shoulder, threaded through both rollers, and then the other end of the bowstring is fixed on the second shoulder.
• Arrow stand. A through hole is made in the handle and the upper part of the dental mesh is inserted into it. This completes the work.

Checking the bow in action

Now that the fabrication is complete, it's time to test the device. For this, it is recommended to use a sand bag.

First, the bag is placed at a distance of 10 meters. Then this segment is gradually increased. In this way, the maximum range of the device can be determined.

Now, anyone who wants to spend their leisure time in nature more interesting can make their own bow. After carefully reading the above information, the problem: “How to make a PVC pipe bow with your own hands” will not be so big. And if you add a little patience and your own imagination to this, you can build a very beautiful and durable bow for sports recreation, which will become an integral part of leisure for a long time. And a huge plus of such a device is that it contains a piece of the soul of the master.

Good day to all dear friends! In today's article, I would like to consider a very interesting homemade idea. This homemade product will not only help pass the time, but also be suitable for constant entertainment and pastime. In general, today we will consider how you can make a not very complicated, but cool shooting bow from ordinary PVC pipes. But this bow is not quite ordinary, firstly, it has a "magazine" with shells and is in fact semi-automatic, and secondly, this bow does not have an ordinary shooting mechanism, it is neither blocky nor classic. Rather something in between.

In general, the homemade product is very interesting, so let's not delay with a long preface, let's go.

For this DIY we need:
- pvc pipes of different diameters (mainly 32 mm)
- office rubber bands
-bolts
- nuts
- washers (bolts, nuts and washers must be of the same type and fit together)
-plywood
-orc glass or transparent thin plastic
-strong, but not very thick thread

Of the tools we will also need:
-marker
- building hair dryer
- mini drill with disc attachments for cutting
-ruler
- hacksaw for metal

And so, the first step is to take a 32 mm PVC pipe, a ruler and a marker. We measure 22 cm with a ruler, make a mark and use a hacksaw to cut a piece from the pipe along the mark.

After the workpiece has been cut off, it must be placed on a flat, strong, non-melting and unnecessary surface, the author of the video used a piece of thick plywood. Then we take a building hair dryer and begin to gradually and gently heat up the pipe. After the pipe softens, you need to take another piece of plywood and press the pipe so that it flattens, but not very much. In general, everything must be done as in the photo below:

With the help of a marker, we round off the edges of the workpiece that we made earlier and mark 3 marks for the holes, one mark in the center on one side, and the other two on the opposite side.

We cut the edges with a mini drill or a small electric grinder (if there are disks for threading the right size and type). Then we change the disc to the drill at the drill and drill those three holes, you need to drill through and as evenly as possible. In the same way, we make another same PVC pipe blank and two more identical blanks, but shorter and with 4 holes, instead 3. How to make two additional blanks can be seen in the photo below, but more clearly, the author showed it in the video:

We take a long PVC pipe and make two marks on it with a marker and a ruler, one at 10 cm, the second at 33 cm. Again, we take a building hair dryer and heat the entire pipe, but not very much. After that, we bend the pipe at the marks as shown in the photo below (it is best, of course, to do this with construction gloves for safety reasons). Then, we drill 4 holes in this workpiece: two from the smallest edge, one in the center and one more from the other edge. By the way, while bending the pipe, the larger edge needs to be flattened a little.

In total, you need to make two such blanks:

We paint the resulting blanks in different colors, the author decided to cover them with spray paint, orange, blue and black:

We start on the side of the main part of the bow.

On the smallest workpiece, we put the two largest ones, so that the holes coincide with each other. Then we insert the bolts into the holes, but do not fix them with nuts and washers yet.

At the ends of long blanks, we install medium blanks and fix them with nuts and bolts. Then, on the very edge of the long blanks, we install the bolts and fasten them a little with nuts, so that they can be put on stationery rubber bands, which we actually do in the next step. We put on several stationery rubber bands at once on the edge of a length and medium workpiece. By the way, the middle workpiece should move freely along its axis. In general, we do everything as shown in the photo below:

On a piece of plywood, using a ruler and a pencil, we make a drawing. The dimensions and shape of the drawing can be seen in the photo below. Using an electric jigsaw, we cut out this blank and repaint it in a different color, this can be done with a marker, but not any marker will be able to paint plywood with high quality:

Now you need to make a mechanism with the supply of shells from the "store" to the "trunk" of the bow and the actual "store" for the shells. There is nothing complicated here, you just need to do everything as shown in the photo below and fine-tune the size of the shells and the hole for them:

We install the resulting mechanism to the overall structure and fix it with bolts and nuts, everything should be smooth and neat. Well, from above, we finally close the remaining smallest blank of PVC pipes:

For a not very thick PVC pipe, we make an even cut at an angle, and on the opposite side we drill an even through hole. This tube should freely enter the tube of the mechanism with the supply of projectiles, but it should not be very thin. This blank will push the projectiles from the "barrel" of the bow.
Let's test what happened:

We put as many shells in the "magazine" and begin to move the tube, which was installed in the mechanism, back and forth. If shells start to feed from the "store" into the "barrel" and fly out of it when the tube returns to its original position, then everything is done correctly and you can continue:

We take a thread, pass it through a through hole in the tube and tie the ends to the edges of the middle blanks. In general, we do everything like this, everything is shown in the photo below.

There are a lot of ways to create such a thing as a bow from PVC pipes, on the Internet you can find the most sophisticated ways, but first of all, I want the manufacturing process to be simple, convenient and not troublesome, including not taking much time and effort. These are the ways to get to know. Consider the three most simple and understandable ways to make onions yourself.

Method number 1.

Using the first method, it is quite possible to make an interesting bow, the design of which cannot be disassembled. Compared to the many tips and concepts of the manufacturing process, this option is perhaps the easiest. The main nuance in creating a bow is the presence of construction equipment, such as a technical hair dryer.

For the manufacturing process, you need to arm yourself with:

1. A PVC pipe with a length of about one and a half meters and a diameter of about 2.5 cm.

2. Technical device hair dryer.

3. Narrow hand saw, felt-tip pen and measuring tape.

4. One long piece of wood and two pieces having a length of about 80 cm.

5. A device for the drilling process with a metal rod and aluminum paper (see).

6. Coloring agent for giving decorative properties.

7. Adhesive tape and gloves of any kind.

So, at the initial stage of making a bow, it is necessary to mark the PVC pipe. Using a measuring tape, you need to measure a section 30 cm long and 60 cm long from two ends of the pipe, followed by marking. For these purposes, for the convenience of the process, you need to use a bright-colored felt-tip pen. Next, it is necessary to determine the central point of the pipe with maximum accuracy, for this you need to measure 75 cm from any end of the pipe. Fix the mark with a felt-tip pen. Then, to determine the area that will be allocated under the handle, you need to measure 8 cm from the central point in both opposite directions. Naturally, fix the marks with a felt-tip pen.

The next stage in the manufacture of the bow involves the creation of a deformation of the PVC pipe. To do this, for the sake of convenience, it is necessary to create an auxiliary element that will help heat the pipe. A piece of aluminum paper must be bent so that two perpendicular planes are formed. Simply put, create a 90 degree angle formation.

Further, the process of deformation and creation of a bend takes place. To achieve what you need, you need to take a PVC pipe and close one end of it with a foil corner element. Being attentive and accurate, focusing on the marking of the pipe, you need to heat the pipe section, which is located at a fixed point of 30 cm. Using a technical hair dryer in this case, the heating process will be quick and hassle-free. It must be taken into account that in order to obtain a good result, it is necessary to try to heat the entire intended section of the pipe with uniform movements. When heating, you need to turn the pipe.

Non-separable PVC pipe bow - Step 4

Once you can visually see that the section of pipe has become soft, to ensure that it does not lose the desired temperature and simply does not cool down, you need to wrap it in aluminum paper. Without wasting time, in order to prevent cooling, you need to do all the same with the other end of the pipe. If it becomes visually noticeable and sensitive to the touch that the first heated section of the pipe has begun to cool down, it is necessary to heat it up additionally, resorting to the same technical hair dryer.

It is very important to understand that in the process of heating a PVC pipe, one should try to prevent the surface of the pipe from becoming covered with bubbles, black plaque or losing its color. Otherwise, this will indicate that the heating process has occurred too quickly and unevenly.

After dividing the end part of the pipe into equal parts, followed by marking with a felt-tip pen, it is necessary to draw a line from the central point of the pipe to one of the edges of the deformed end. The correct tilt is the position inside the bow from the bottom up.

Having retreated from each end of the pipe a distance of 3 cm, you need to fix it with a marker and draw a rounding of the ends of the future bow. According to the drawn rounded line, you need to cut off all unnecessary. By analogy with the process with the second end of the pipe, do the same.

To hide ugly cuts using a technical hair dryer, you need to heat them up and, after they become elastic enough, bend the edges of the pipe into the inside of the future bow. The other end must be processed in the same way. Alternatively, cuts and their edges can be ennobled with sandpaper.

In order for the transition area between the deformed edges and the base of the bow to be smoother, it is necessary to warm up the transition area slowly enough, focusing on a mark of 30 cm and about 4 cm on both sides. In the process of heating the pipe, it should gradually expand and the transition section will become smooth by itself. This time can be used (while the area is heated) to create a bend in the ends of the product. Relative to the base of the bow, the curves should protrude forward. In the same way, it is necessary to create a bend of the second end of the pipe. As a result, at the end of this stage, you should get a smooth pipe with forward-curved endings.

Next, you need to warm up the pipe segment from the mark of 30 cm to the initial line of the handle. After the procedure, you need to bend to the inside of the bow and let it cool. On the opposite side, you need to repeat the procedure. As a result, the features of the future bow should begin to be seen.

And at the final stage, it is necessary to bend the handle. This process is necessary for the convenience of using the bow. According to the already familiar principle, it is necessary to heat up the area reserved for the handle with a technical hair dryer and squeeze it between the legs, creating an ellipse for it. The narrowed parts of the ellipse should be perpendicular to the person holding the bow. At the same time, you need to raise the opposite parts of the bow, while achieving a change in the position of the handle, it should bend into the inner plane of the bow.

We complete the manufacture of the bow by the process of creating places for a tight stretch of a nylon thread or twine. Having stepped back from each end of the bow about 2 mm and from the front part about 1 cm, it is necessary to make the corresponding holes with a drill at the intended mark. The holes should be about 5mm in diameter. After that, with a special saw, it is necessary to cut a groove at an angle, located from the edge of the bow to the drilled hole. Naturally, from the other end of the bow, it is necessary to repeat the process.

To give the onion a beautiful appearance, with the help of dyes, you need to apply a layer of them on the surface of the onion, thereby decorating it. The color must be chosen according to your desires. If, before applying the paint, slightly treat the surface of the onion with a skin, you can ensure the ease and quality of applying the coloring texture. With adhesive tape or another, you need to wrap the ends of the bow (focusing on the mark of 30 cm) and the section under the arm.

Now you can use the hand-made product.

Method number 2.

As it has already become clear, this place will be intended for the handle. We must not forget that all sizes are approximate, if the palm is much larger, then the markup should be carried out, taking into account the size of a person’s palm. Otherwise, holding the bow will be simply inconvenient.

With the help of construction equipment, you need to warm up one side of the pipe from the initial line of the handle to the very end. After the PVC pipe has become softened and flexible, you need to lay it in a pre-created board structure.

In the case of using a polypropylene pipe, the boards will not help create a clamp and deform it. In this case, in addition to the boards, you need to use more rigid and durable materials and fixtures, for example, iron corners and a tool with which you can clamp the pipe. After clamping one part of the pipe, it is necessary to bend it. All these actions must be done with the second part of the future bow.

Next, you need to start shaping the handle. Having protected your hands with gloves or any rag, after warming up the desired part, you need to create a comfortable place in which you are supposed to keep the bow. In the case of using pipes made of polypropylene, to create a handle, you must repeat the steps using harder tools. You need to try not to overdo it, flatten quite a bit.

Then it is necessary to measure a section 15 cm long from each end of the pipe. Using any tin, you need to put one end with a measured point on it so that the point that defines a segment of 15 cm is located strictly in its center. From this moment, you can start working with a technical hair dryer, bringing the pipe to flexibility. Having brought to the desired state, the softened segment must be twisted around the circumference of the container.

It is important to note that care must be taken not to overdo it. In the event of a strong overheating of a PVC product, it will begin to change color, turn yellow and lose its quality properties. If you overheat a pipe made of polypropylene, it will simply spread.

When constructing a mount for a tension thread, you need to saw through two-sided recesses at the ends, while controlling the depth. You don't have to make them see-through. As a bowstring, the same rope made of polypropylene and nylon is suitable. Alternatively, you can try cotton. If there is any other rope available that does not have the ability to stretch, you can use it without hesitation.

For the manufacture of arrows for a bow, you can purchase factory-made wooden narrow slats. To feather an arrow, it is recommended to use a natural feather; when fired, it does not injure the hand. The length of the rails must be chosen so that when the product is tensioned, it is enough. To prevent the arrows from sliding along the thread, it is necessary to cut recesses at their ends. To ensure good penetration into objects, the opposite ends of the arrows must be well sharpened and veiled with a hard material. Now you can enjoy it.

All three ways to make a bow from PVC pipes are considered, and the choice of the simplest and most convenient is up to you.

Plastic pipes are the most economical and user-friendly material for making bows.

A PVC pipe bow is not subject to corrosive processes, does not rot, and can be easily made by hand.

Tools and materials

A homemade bow is easiest to make from ordinary PVC pipes. Such a product can easily be placed in a quiver with arrows, disassembled and assembled in a few seconds.

A bow made of PVC pipes, subject to high-quality and proper manufacture, will look aesthetically pleasing and modern. In order to make a homemade bow with your own hands, you must have available:

• PVC pipe used to supply cold water, with an outer diameter of 26 mm and a wall thickness of 3 mm;
• Hacksaw, marker, ruler, tape measure;
• Foil used to ensure fire safety;
• Forming board for high-quality clamping of the pipe and its reliable fastening;
• Clamp for fixing the board;
• Locksmith table, on which it will be possible to carry out marking, heating and subsequent processing of the product;
• Wooden bars, with a height equal to the thickness of the pipe;
• File and sandpaper, with which the edges will be processed;
• Protective gloves;
• A strong rope made of polypropylene - a bowstring will be made from it.

In the absence of PVC pipes, you can use a polyethylene analogue, which is sold in 3 m lengths.

So much material is enough to make two. It is important to remember that power and strength directly depend on the thickness of the pipe - it should average 1-1.3 cm.

Stages of work

To begin with, the desired piece of pipe with a length of 1.5 m is cut off. Such a product will be quite convenient for both an adult and a teenager.

It is necessary to measure 5 cm from the middle - there will be a handle here and before continuing production, you need to properly try on it.

In this case, the palm should be completely placed on the marked area. In the event that you have a wide palm, the size increases, and marks are also made with a marker.

After that, using a heating device, one half of the pipe is heated exactly to the marked mark.

The heating temperature can vary between 150-160°C. At this stage, it is recommended to use foil to avoid accidental ignition of improvised materials.

The pipe is heated until it acquires the desired degree of plasticity along its entire length and becomes pliable. The heated PVC blank is placed on the table, after which the molding board and clamps must be pressed against it.

Under the place where the future pen will be located, pre-prepared wooden bars are placed.

After the first shoulder of the bow is formed, the second is created in the same way. It is important that both parts are symmetrical to each other.

The handle is also formed by heating, but it must be flattened perpendicular to the already finished shoulders.

The shape of the handle is given after it is wrapped in a dense fabric by squeezing it with your fingers and adjusting it to fit your own palm.

To fasten the bowstring on both sides of the edges of the shoulders, a distance of 8 cm is measured.

The anchor points are marked with the same marker, after which protrusions are made for more convenient fastening of the bowstring. To this end:

1. The extreme piece of the product is heated for complete pliability of the form.
2. Bends at an angle of 90°.
3. With the help of a ruler and a marker, the future protrusion is marked, which must be cut out using a hacksaw.
4. The resulting protrusion is carefully processed with sandpaper or a file in order to give the product a finished look.
5. In the same way, protrusions are made on the second shoulder.

How to make a bow from PVC pipes (video)

Making a shelf for an arrow

In order to make a shelf for an arrow, you will need to have a piece of pipe and three ordinary toothbrushes on hand.

A piece of pipe in length should not be less than 10 cm. It will be necessary to cut a blank from it, having the shape of the letter “T” or “G”, the upper part of which will serve as a semi-ring of the future shelf - an arrow must subsequently be inserted into its slot.

To create a slot in which arrows will be placed when using a bow, the workpiece must be put on a pipe with a large diameter.

And to give the desired shape to the leg of the shelf, its lower part should be attached to the handle and smooth the leg with your own hands, giving it the necessary shape.

In this case, with one hand, you need to firmly hold the half ring in order to avoid its accidental displacement or opening. The second hand at the same time presses the handle to the half ring. At the same time, you need to tighten its leg, thereby giving the part the desired shape.

After that, toothbrushes are taken and, so that their bristles are not damaged during the heating process, they are pre-wrapped with tape.

Ultimately, you should get an even homemade semicircle. After that, everything superfluous is removed from the bristles, and the finished parts are connected using small screws.

Creation of a camouflage bow

A bow made of PVC pipes can be not only powerful, but also beautiful. This will require a dense camouflage fabric. After it has been impregnated with a layer of epoxy, the bow will become composite, and the force with which the bowstring will be pulled will increase.

To make camouflage, the fabric must be attached to the PVC pipe using spray adhesive.

In order to make a camouflage of the handle and shelves for arrows, it is recommended to impregnate the fabric with any polymer.

The best option is to glue the fabric on a layer of epoxy. To this end, the entire surface of the shoulder of the product is carefully lubricated with resin, and when it partially hardens, it will create a “scotch effect”.

After applying a layer of glue, all the folds are carefully straightened, and the fabric is laid on a camouflage surface.

At the beginning of the work, the entire fabric is applied to the socket, after which it is impregnated with superglue to enhance the effect. Further, everything is simple - the fabric must be stretched and then smoothed. All this must be done until the glue is completely frozen.

Pasting camouflage starts from the shoulder of the bow, and the process is carried out non-stop. To attach the camouflage to the shaped handle, the easiest way is to use the simple winding method.

To do this, a tape 10-12 cm wide is cut off from the canvas, and then glue is applied to the handle, over which camouflage is wound. Next, narrow strips of fabric are glued to the inner surface of the half ring.
