About The Event
What to expect off this workshop?
Join us for a hands-on workshop where you'll craft a traditional wooden longbow using time-honored methods and tools. Over the course of two days, our expert tutor Jack Pinson will guide you through each stage of the process, including setting out, rough shaping, and the critical art of tillering. Longbows have been a vital tool for target practice, hunting, and warfare throughout history, and this is your opportunity to create your own authentic version.
What is the material cost of this workshop?
The cost is 60 euros to be paid to the tutor.
This includes a pre laminated bow stave and a suitable bow string.
