More Hand-Made Medieval Crossbows
This is a gorgeous hand-made crossbow with a beautiful black, red and gold theme. It has a wonderful curved styling. "The Wiesenfeuer crossbow is the one that I was commissioned to make for the Barony as the pass-down Archery Champion's prize. It is made of rock maple and colored with aniline dyes, then gilded. It also has a customized strap and a matching quiver."
The Western Dragon About this Crossbow: " It is made of curly maple with brass and copper accents. The dragon's head is gilded and the fire is painted with artist's oils. The eyes are tumbled garnet. "

A booklet on running your own Crossbow Project that includes step by step instructions, documentation, many pictures and diagrams as well as full-scaled drawings of the various parts of the crossbow and three different stock patterns. This is available on CD ROM for $10 + S&H (overseas shipping extra). Here is his contact information: I am with the SCA (for 25 years now) and do custom work. David Swanson aka Malaki Dracwin
