I hv made one pvc recurve bow taking help from youtube vid. By backyard bowyer.
I used sch.80 pipe nd made jigh and clamps to flatten limbs. Will post pics later.

Its steady n working good, i shoot light weight steel pipe to make arrows, as i didn't get wooden shafts anywhere, uploaded vid. On youtube also.

Thanks for the share. Loved the idea. I'm planing to make one.
Just a small question: what alternates can used for the bow string? any DIY ideas around?
