Archive/Forum/Making bows, arrows and stuff/horn thickness for Korean bow horn thickness for Korean bow 2 posts2006live thread G DoaneThu Feb 09, 2006 1:26 pm how thick will the horn need to be ?? if my intended weight is 60# at 30 inches. Stephen SelbyFri Feb 10, 2006 1:46 am Around 5mm should do it. Horn is relatively heavy and doesn't do a lot of work for the limb, so you don't want too much. ← Previous in Making bows, arrows and stuffSinew glueNext in Making bows, arrows and stuff →these sinew strings not need glue for glue together!!!?
