[QUOTE="sterling_archer, post: 1120616, member: 11955"] Currently its my hobby and passion, like I work around with steel and other things. I plan to make it a side business in near future. I still have to get more experience and what is also important, good quantity and quality of wood. For example I should have entire stack of wood laying around so I could just pick something up and make for client as opposed to go to the woods each time someone wants a bow. Also, shit is that there is almost no market for bows I would make here in Croatia. Even local archery clubs that do reenactment use fiberglass bows that they bought from internet. Ridiculous, don't you think? If I were to come to them they would probably ignore me as they know that they could easily buy from certified maker that uses machines and has his own workers instead of some unknown guy. I mean, I should try to show them my work but I am not really optimistic, especially what other things I saw with them, which I will not discuss here. I don't make arrows just because I don't have access to feathers and good quality timber from which I could turn shafts. [/QUOTE]
