Good question Ray

I don't think a bow would be something I would use a scroll saw to manufacture, but I could see a beautiful pattern of a bow and arrows is several different scenes.

I think Steve has one - doesn't he have the Oriental woman with a bow pattern?

Note that a bow involves a lot of stored energy so you need to make it so it is safe. There is more process to it than plan.

this isn't a scroll saw project, but it has been on my summer-to-do list (but I haven't gotten to it yet)
