Now that Brian has quartered and split the ash wood in the previous video it's time to rough out the shape and cut the long bow to length. Then we use a tillering stick to make sure that the long bow will bend equally on either side of the handle.
This is the second video in a series that will help explain the steps on building a longbow from ash.
