Published on 24 Mar 2018 Scrap Bin Crossbow. IRON BEECH & ELM Crossbow. Scrap Bin Crossbow. Part 6. How I Made a Crossbow from Scrap. I ran into a problem with my crossbow tickler (trigger) and had to remake it. But then, with all the parts to hand, I set about assembling my scrap bin crossbow. So was my scrap bin challenge worthwhile? Yes! I learned much in making this simple crossbow, primarily that building even a simple crossbow calls upon engineering as well as bow making skills. My next one will be much better! Thanks for watching!

The build was quite long and took 3 days to film, but here it is! There are 13 parts, so sit back with some popcorn relax. The crossbow has a 100 pound prod, a PVC stirrup, a captive bolt rest and a simple lever trigger. For extra stability, the bolt nocks directly on the string to eliminate the need for a retention clip and to reduce side-to-side bolt movement. Thanks for watching and enjoy! Here's a better description of some things you will need as well as links to videos and some items on Amazon. The heating trough is made of a non-conductive base like cardboard or wood shaped like a gutter or round tube, covered in a reflective material like aluminum foil or flashing.
