Easy Pvc Cross Bow

A very easy to build crossbow.the stock is actually pine but the prod(bow)is pvc.the stirrup is just a piece of para cord so is the string but with some duct tape.the whole thing is spray painted silver.it shoots well and fast.all I had to buy was the wood which cost me about $5 in New Zealand(which is where I live).if you had to buy all the materials then it would cost $25-$30 I'm guessing.

The prod is made of pvc.its the bow part of the crossbow.its just a 90cm piece of 20mm pipe flattened like you would make a bow.nothing fancy no recurves no anything just flattened pvc pipe.in fact I used a old bow

This toke about two hours to make.the wood is pine.the prod is lashed on with hemp twine.i added a pvc thing to hold the arrow in place. The trigger is a dowel that pushes the string up the string dosnt nock on to the bolt.

The shafts are pine dowels waxed with beeswax.fletchings are made of duct tape.the point is blunt in drilled a hole and then I glued nails in to them.i also added a groove for the string to hold onto.
