That's actually something Bob mentions in the video -- that if he ever came across the right archery bow he'd use that. Although it's hard to beat the dowel rod for weight, affordability, and for the fact that it just plain works. Of course, you're free to experiment! Roy Thanks Don for the recommendation.

As long as it holds enough tension in the cutting wire, you'd be good. Bob's method originally came about as a result of some experimentation, so you have the right idea. Feel free to try it out -- then come back and let me know here how it worked! Roy Furr Editor FoamWingCutting.com Jim,

I thought of a way you could make a deeper "bow" using two dowel sticks held at an angle with a couple of wood disks. Think of two "tinkertoy" ( remember those? ) sticks stuck into two of the wood wheels, and the two wood wheels held together so the sticks were at a slight angle ( maybe 120 degrees ) to each other. Then you would not have to bend the dowel so much, and the depth of the cut could be greater ! Just a thought. Again, thanks for your informative page.
