We can teach you how!
Welcome to Bingham Projects, where we have been teaching folks how to build bows for over fifty years! So let’s get started:
#1- First things first, let’s pick a bow. If you don’t already have an idea of which style of bow you want to build, take a
moment to look at page 2. We offer several different styles to choose from, so take a moment to peruse the bows and decide
which one catches your eye.
#2- Now that you know which style of bow you want to go with for your first build, let’s move on. At Bingham Projects, we
try to keep things as simple as possible. To that end we offer what we like to call the All-In-One Starter Kit to get you
rolling. These kits include pretty well everything you will need to complete your first bow.
Once you have specified how heavy you want the bow (draw weight), how far you comfortably pull back the string when you
shoot (draw length), and whether you are building your bow for a right handed or left handed shooter, we will have enough
information to put your kit together and ship it out.
For a comprehensive list of each individual component in your First Time Kit, please refer to the information page
corresponding to the style of bow you are building. There are a few odds and ends you’ll need to purchase at your local
hardware store, but apart from that we’ll get you set up with everything you need for your first build.
#3- Once your First Time Kit arrives, be sure to watch the included Instructional DVD and look over the Instructional
Booklet and the included blueprints. Our DVD walks you through the entire process, from start to finish.
So now you know where to get started on your path to becoming a full-fledged bowyer. If, after watching the DVD and reading the instructional booklet, you still have any questions at all, we want you to understand that we are dedicated to helping
you build this bow. We have a helpful FAQ section here in the catalog that answers the most commonly asked questions and
may be informative to you, and we have additional information on our website, www.BinghamProjects.com. Additionally
please know that you can call or email (info@BinghamProjects.com) anytime and we will do our best to help you out.
Building and shooting your very own bow is truly a rewarding experience. If, after reading this, you have any doubts as to
whether or not you can build your own bow, the answer is most certainly Yes! For over fifty years we have been teaching
people just like you how to build bows, and we look forward to helping you build yours.
Thanks for spending some time with the Bingham Projects family.

Press KitsThe press kit contains the necessary
components to build the press that will
give your bow its shape. Once your bow
is glued up, you will lock it into the
press, and place the press in your heating
oven to cure the epoxy. The press kit
includes the instruction materials and
DVD to teach you the process. Please
note that the plywood for the mold and
the wiring for the heating fixtures are not
included. The one piece recurve press
kit is the only press that requires press
tapers. The take-down recurve, longbow,
and take-down longbow presses do not
need press tapers.

Bow Strings
We offer bow strings in three different materials:
B-50 Dacron - Synthetic superiority with excellent abrasion resistance. Durable and consistent. It has been the standard for
Traditional bows since 1944. .018 diameter.
Fast Flight Plus™ - The first High Modulus PolyEthelyne (HMPE) bowstring material. Minimal creep, superior strength and
durability. .014 diameter.
D97 Bowstring - The original high strength Dyneema® bowstring - 100% SK 75; very durable, low creep.
Continuous Loop vs Flemish
Continuous loop strings are thought to have better performance but the difference is so slight as to have to be measured. They are
extremely durable, very stable, and efficient.
801.399.3470 Fax: 801.399.3471
Bingham Projects
Flemish strings are extremely popular with traditional archers. Not only do they have that traditional appearance, but they are
thought to be quieter. They are also useful in making small changes in brace height.
Note: Before you use high performance strings, check with the manufacturer of the bow. All Bingham Bow
designs will work with Dacron, Fast Flight Plus™ and D97 as long as appropriate tip overlays are used. We suggest at
least 1/8” of phenolic or at least two layers of Bo-Tuff. Use high performance strings at your own risk. We cannot be held
responsible for bow damage.
String sizes are as follows: AMO Bow Lengths: 58”, 60”, 62”, 64”, 66”, 68”. Please specify Recurve, Longbow, or
Take-Down Longbow. We also have youth strings (Dacron Only). Please specify 48” Recurve, 48” or 56” Longbow.
Please note that the size written on the package is NOT the actual string length. Actual string length is 4 inches shorter
than the bow length for recurve bows, and 3 inches shorter for longbows. When ordering a string, do not order by actual string
length. Please order by AMO bow length.

Helpful Hints for the Novice Bow Builder (FAQ)
I
t is a very gratifying experience to
build your own traditional bow,
and then to shoot that same bow with
predictable accuracy. It is my hope
that each of you will become a successful bowyer and archer. There are a few
false notions and some common problems in building bows which new bowyers should be cautioned against. After
more than fifty-six years in the archery
business, either building or teaching others to build bows, We have been asked
thousands of questions about bows and
related items. I have compiled the answers to these questions in an attempt to
prevent problems that might frustrate a
novice bowyer.
How Should I choose my Bow Draw
Weight?
Make archery fun. Choose a bow draw
weight that is comfortable, less than what
you are capable of pulling. Many new archers become discouraged and quickly
lose interest in the sport when the bow is
so heavy that it is not fun to shoot, or when
the bow is so heavy that accuracy is lost.
Most states have a legal weight of 40-50
lbs. for big game. On a cold fall day when
you are stalking a buck, a lighter bow is
a joy to shoot. The secret to success is in
accuracy, not in muscle. In target practice
or tournament shooting, an even lighter
draw weight may be more desirable. A
heavier bow can be considered once you
have practiced, muscles are firming up
and you are getting a feel for archery.
Bow Design
It is of great concern to me that some
prospective first-time bowyers want to
revolutionize archery design. It seems
to be human nature to feel that your own
design will bring about superior
performance and artistic design
immediately. Personal pride in one’s
own handiwork is notable, but remember
that experimentation is usually a slow,
painful, and often expensive process.
Sometimes a change in recurve design
can cause limb twist, weight change, and a
lessening in performance. You will notice
that, in a general sense, the limb design
is very similar throughout the archery
industry. Often bows from various
manufacturers will appear different
The most important consideration for
choosing your wood is beauty. The second
most important consideration in choosing
your wood is beauty. Are you starting to
see a pattern? Ideally, if you are concerned
about performance, you should choose a
light weight limb material, such as ash or
maple or bamboo. However, the actual
speed difference between these lighter
woods and one of the more exotic, slightly
heavier woods, is negligible at best. So is
a lighter wood more desirable for performance? Yes. But will you see enough of
a performance upgrade that you shouldn’t
use a heavier wood that you think is prettier? No. Not in our opinion. Again, we
recommend you choose the wood that is
the most aesthetically pleasing to you.
Should I add Carbon to my bow?
You should consider adding a strip of
carbon glass to your bow if you are concerned about speed. Carbon will speed up
the performance of your limbs by about
five feet per second.
When adding carbon to a limb it is imperative to subtract five pounds from your
desired draw weight, in addition to accounting for the thickness of the carbon
(.020” or .030”) from your overall limb
thickness. The rule of thumb when placing carbon in your limb is to place it as
www.binghamprojects.com
What tools do I need for this project?
Obviously a fully outfitted woodshop
comes in handy, but that is absolutely not
necessary to build your own bow. The
only two requisite power tools needed
for this project are 1- a power sander, and
2- a band saw. If you own these tools, or
can at least get access to them, you are
good to go. A drill press is very helpful if
you are building a take-down bow. It can
also double as a power sander if you purchase one of our Drum Sanders. They fit
into the chuck of your drill press.
801.399.3470 Fax: 801.399.3471
The first concern is the most important.
Watch the video and read the instructional
materials carefully, plan your procedures
in detail, and make a dry-run with all
materials and equipment you will need.
If, after carefully doing these things, you
still have questions, please feel free to
call us before beginning your project.

How do I determine my draw length?
The easiest way to measure draw length is
to nock an old arrow in your bow. Draw
your bow back to a full, comfortable draw,
and have someone mark the arrow at the
point where it meets the back (target side)
of your arrow shelf. Carefully let your
bow down. Measure from the base of the
groove of the arrow nock to the place on
the shaft that you previously marked. This
is your draw length. Add 1” to that measurement and that is your arrow length.
This additional 1” will give your proper
broadhead clearance.

If you are ordering a limb lamination kit
from us and plan on following one of the
Bingham Bow designs you do not need to
figure out your limb thickness. Please just
state your desired weight, width, length,
and draw length and we will figure out the
rest for you.
You can find the Bingham Bow Draw
Weight Chart in this catalog. For our recurves, the limb thickness is composed
of 2 pieces of Bo-tuff, 1 parallel, and 1
taper (.002”). The total limb thickness is
the sum of all four layers, the taper being
measured at the butt end. For our 1 piece
longbows and our shallow t.d. longbow,
the limb thickness is composed of 2 pieces
of Bo-tuff, 3 parallels, and 1 taper (.002”).
The total limb thickness is the sum of all
six layers, the taper being measured at the
butt end. For our pronounced t.d. longbow, the limb thickness is composed of 2
pieces of Bo-tuff, 1 regular taper (.002”),
1 parallel, and 1 reverse taper (.002”). The
reverse taper is simply a taper that is reversed so that the thin end of the taper is
at the butt end of the limb. The total limb
thickness is the sum of all five layers, the
regular taper being measured at the butt
end and the reverse taper being measured
at the thin end. In the case of the t.d. bows,
the wedge is never considered part of the
limb thickness. Additionally, please note
that this chart is accurate for Bingham
Bows and designs only. We are happy to
offer advice if you are using your own design, but we cannot guarantee an accurate
limb thickness for different designs.
How long will it take you to process
my order?
For a custom order including wood or cane
core laminations, risers, tapered wedges,
or phenolic accents, you should anticipate
anywhere from 1-2 days for processing,
depending on the season. Winter is routinely the busiest season so please expect
a slightly longer processing time.
Orders that do not require custom parts

What is the difference between
Dacron, Fast Flight & D97 string?
-24-33-
Dacron is the standard for traditional
bows. It has some stretch to it. Therefore,
it is a little more forgiving for your bow. It
is also a little quieter. Fast Flight and D97
don’t stretch as much and therefore transfer more energy to your arrow. It may
give you increased performance. Make
sure that your limb tips are reinforced to
be able to use Fast Flight or D97.
All Bingham Bows will handle the increased strain of Fast Flight and D97, as
long as the tip overlays are finished to an
appropriate thickness.
How thick should I make the tip
overlays?
For high performance strings, a total
thickness of at least 1/8” should be used,
if you are using phenolic tip overlays. For
cosmetic appearance, I like to use two layers of 1/16”, using different colors. With
Bo-Tuff overlays, use two layers. Again,
two different colors look great.
Third, dry spots. Make sure you use
plenty of epoxy. You can have a “sufficient” glue line, but while you are
spreading epoxy on the other laminations, the glue can seep into the wood,
creating a dry spot. Before putting mating laminations together, check them
under a light. They should be shiny everywhere. Look specifically for those
dry spots. Dry spots will have a dull
appearance. Apply more epoxy to these
dull looking areas.
These hints will help take care of these
types of problems.
How do I shorten my TDLB?
What are the possible causes of
delaminations, “air bubbles” or
“cloudy spots” in your limbs?
The procedure to shorten your takedown longbow is similar to the procedure for changing lengths on your takedown recurve. It is very simple, for
every two inches that you shorten your
tdlb, you move your press pin one inch,
from the original 68” position, toward
the tip end of the press. You also shorten the limb template one inch at the butt
end. For example, if you were making
a 64” tdlb, you would move your press
pin two inches toward the tip end of the
press from the 68” position and shorten
your limb template two inches at the
butt end.
These problems are caused by not having
a good bo-tuff/epoxy/wood bond.
What is the difference between the
1.75” and 2” limb on a recurve?
The usual culprit is one of, or a combination of, these three things:
It is mainly personal preference. Some
people prefer a slimmer appearance and
feel.
How do I measure bow length?
The easiest way to measure the length of
your bow is to start at the string groove,
follow the curvature of the limb along
the belly side of the bow, across the riser
area, and follow the curvature of the
other limb to the other string groove.
This will give you the a.m.o. bow length.
First, some kind of contamination on your
laminations. This can be either surface
moisture, using a solvent that isn’t pure,
or dust. Your wood laminations can pick
up moisture from the air. This will interfere with the epoxy. Lay out your wood
laminations in your heat box while it is
warming up for about 30 minutes. Let
them return to room temperature before
laminating. We don’t recommend using
solvents, just use a stiff bristle brush to
clean the laminations.
Second, insufficient pressure. I’m not referring to the 60 psi in your hose, that is
sufficient. If your top and bottom form
are too far apart, the air hose rounds up
more than it should. The more your hose
rounds up, the less it wants to bend and
the less it will give you good pressure.
If you are consistently having issues in
bending parts of your limb, such as the reflex of your recurve or the fadeout of your
longbow riser, this may be your problem.
To correct this, add some shim material
between the hose and the top part of the
mold to take up the extra room. Your
hose won’t have to round up as much.

What is the difference in the limb
thickness for weight of a flat limb
longbow and a reflex/deflex longbow?
None. The limb thickness for weight of
a flat limb longbow and a standard reflex/deflex longbow are the same.
What is the difference between our
64” Reflex/Deflex longbow and our
62” Hybrid longbow design?
The 62” Hybrid has more reflex/deflex
than the 64” reflex/deflex.
If, after reading all this, you are still
asking the same question, “Can I build
a bow?”, the answer is still “yes”. Good
luck on your project, and that next trophy might well be shot using your very
own handcrafted bow.
Yours for better shooting,

O
ver a half century ago, ElMont L. Bingham, founder
of Bingham Projects, Inc. (formerly Bingham Archery),
envisioned a way to provide the avid archer with the means to
become a do-it-yourself traditional bowyer. To accomplish
this, he drafted How to Build Your Own Traditional Bow
manuals, full sized blueprints, and later, videos. He brought
together
togethe the best component materials and developed
traditional bow kits.
As today’s leader in the industry, we continue to provide
the finest quality supplies available. The weekend bowyer
and the professional bowyer alike are able to experience
their dreams of building beautiful Traditional Recurves,
Take-Down Recurves, Longbows, Take-Down Longbows,
or the new Reflex/Deflex Longbows and Hybrid Longbows.
Mr. Bingham’s vision continues to be the traditional archer’s dream come true.
