The bowyer's backpack is an idea for those who can't justify a workshop full of expensive woodworking tools; but also don't want to struggle with single-tool survival builds.
The kit is completely customizable to your liking, but ideally all of your tools should fit into a backpack so you can enjoy the great outdoors while you craft your bow.
A couple of extra tools (especially a good rasp) makes the process exponentially easier. It's meant to be somewhere in the middle ground between the ultra-minimalist and ultra-maximalist methods of creating your own archery gear.
Would you change anything in this video's kit? I'd love to hear your loadout in the comments below.
To see a step-by-step tutorial with spoken instructions for making a bow with nothing but a hatchet and knife, check out my video titled "Making a Bow by Feel - No Special Tools".
Thanks for watching!
