My cheap and crude bow press. It cost me $0.00 since all this stuff came from the scrap bin. I think it works ok for my needs, certainly not for a now shop or anything.

I like it. Super simple. I made one by just welding fingers onto a pipe clamp but it lacks enough travel to fully deload limbs for disassembly. I just use it for tuning.

That looks nice, I like how small or compact it is compared to mine. I can't tell for sure in the pic but is that tape on the fingers? Is so, I used a product called Plasti Dip to cover mine. Its sold as a tool handle dip. If you haven't heard of it, let me know and Ill try to track more info down. 20190410_161617.jpeg

I will be making one very soon. It’s a different design. I’ll post a thread with pics when I build it.
