The man and the vision behind the bow kit

Born and raised in Randolph, Utah, known by many as one of the coldest places in the lower forty-eight
states, ElMont L. Bingham grew up in a typical country family, making his living with his hands.

ElMont recalls his first adventure with archery, or as they knew it back then, a bow n arrow. While in the
third grade, ElMont fashioned a bow from a tree limb and an arrow from a willow. With the use of common string he
had his first bow and arrow. One day while in the class, and not doing his reading, riting and rithmetic, he strung his
bow, carefully nocked his arrow and launched it with the technique and accuracy of a well known Robin Hood. The
flying arrow was next seen sticking in the history teachers prized possession, not a mounted deer, elk, or antelope
head with trophy-sized horns, but rather a picture of Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth President of the United States
of America. Needless to say, this act by such a young man was not well received, and in ElMonts words, the penalty
was such that he was sure he would never cast an arrow in a classroom again.

This was the beginning of a hobby that was to be a part of him for a lifetime. Following his years of required
education, ElMont studied and graduated in 1950 from Utah State University in Industrial Arts with a Teaching
Degree in Secondary Education. After teaching school for several years, he returned to the university and in 1959
completed his Masters Degree in Industrial Arts Education.

While teaching high school industrial arts, ElMont sought to develop programs that would allow students
the opportunity to be creative, learn to use their hands and to experience success. One of his many projects, which
became a popular yearly event, was building a recurve bow by following a proven design that he had developed.
As time passed, it became obvious that if a person, student or adult, had access to a few power tools and followed
directions, he could build a recurve bow that he would be pleased to show even to his greatest critic.

In 1959, ElMont started Bingham Archery, later to become Bingham Projects, Inc. He offered proven
instructional materials, prints, and bow kits for building the Recurve Bow, the ever popular Take-Down Recurve, the
Longbow, and the Take-Down Longbow as well as the finest in bow making materials.

Since 1993, his son, Elmont M. Bingham has continued in the great tradition of his father, assuring every
opportunity for the avid archer to become a successful bowyer.

Helpful Hints for the Novice Bow Builder (FAQ)
t is a very gratifying experience to

build your own traditional bow,
and then to shoot that same bow with
predictable accuracy. It is my hope
that each of you will become a successful
bowyer and archer. There are a few false
notions and some common problems
in building bows which new bowyers
should be cautioned against. After more
than fifty-two years in the archery business, either building or teaching others to
build bows, I have been asked thousands
of questions about bows and related
items. I have compiled the answers to
these questions in an attempt to prevent
problems that might frustrate a novice
bowyer.
How Should I choose my Bow Draw

Weight?
Make archery fun. Choose a bow draw
weight that is comfortable, less than what
you are capable of pulling. Many new archers become discouraged and quickly
lose interest in the sport when the bow is
so heavy that it is not fun to shoot, or when
the bow is so heavy that accuracy is lost.
Most states have a legal weight of 40-50
lbs. for big game. On a cold fall day when
you are stalking a buck, a lighter bow is
a joy to shoot. The secret to success is in
accuracy, not in muscle. In target practice
or tournament shooting, an even lighter
draw weight may be more desirable. A
heavier bow can be considered once you
have practiced, muscles are firming up
and you are getting a feel for archery.
Bow Design
It is of great concern to me that some
prospective first-time bowyers want to
revolutionize archery design. It seems
to be human nature to feel that your own
design will bring about superior
performance and artistic design
immediately. Personal pride in ones
own handiwork is notable, but remember
that experimentation is usually a slow,
painful, and often expensive process.
Sometimes a change in recurve design
can cause limb twist, weight change, and a
lessening in performance. You will notice
that, in a general sense, the limb design
is very similar throughout the archery
industry. Often bows from various
manufacturers will appear different
801.399.3470 Fax: 801.399.3471
The first concern is the most important.

Watch the video and read the instructional
materials carefully, plan your procedures
in detail, and make a dry-run with all
materials and equipment you will need.
If, after carefully doing these things, you
still have questions, please feel free to
call us before beginning your project.

Helpful Hints for the Novice Bow Builder (FAQ)

How do I determine my draw length?
The easiest way to measure draw length is
to nock an old arrow in your bow. Draw
your bow back to a full, comfortable draw,
and have someone mark the arrow at the
point where it meets the back (target side)
of your arrow shelf. Carefully let your
bow down. Measure from the base of the
groove of the arrow nock to the place on
the shaft that you previously marked. This
is your draw length. Add 1 to that measurement and that is your arrow length.
This additional 1 will give your proper
broadhead clearance.

How do I correct limb twist?

Refer to our instructional material for directions. If you still have questions, give
us a call and we will help you.
How do I determine the thickness of
my limbs?
You can find the Bingham Bow Draw
Weight Chart in this catalog. For our recurves, the limb thickness is composed
of 2 pieces of Bo-tuff, 1 parallel, and 1
taper (.002). The total limb thickness is
the sum of all four layers, the taper being
measured at the butt end. For our 1 piece
longbows and our shallow t.d. longbow,
the limb thickness is composed of 2 pieces
of Bo-tuff, 3 parallels, and 1 taper (.002).
The total limb thickness is the sum of all
six layers, the taper being measured at the
butt end. For our pronounced t.d. longbow, the limb thickness is composed of 2
pieces of Bo-tuff, 1 regular taper (.002),
1 parallel, and 1 reverse taper (.002). The
reverse taper is simply a taper that is reversed so that the thin end of the taper is
at the butt end of the limb. The total limb
thickness is the sum of all five layers, the
regular taper being measured at the butt
end and the reverse taper being measured
at the thin end. In the case of the t.d. bows,
the wedge is never considered part of the
limb thickness. Additionally, please note
that this chart is accurate for Bingham
Bows and designs only. We are happy to
offer advice if you are using your own design, but we cannot guarantee an accurate
limb thickness for different designs.
If you are ordering a limb lamination kit
from us and plan on following one of the
Bingham Bow designs you do not need to
figure out your limb thickness. Please just
state your desired weight, width, length,
and draw length and we will figure out the
rest for you.

Please refer to page 5 for Recurves, page

6 for Take-Down Recurves, page 7 for
Longbows, and page 8 for Take-Down

Longbows.
How long will it take you to process
my order?
For a custom order including wood or cane
core laminations, risers, tapered wedges,
or phenolic accents, you should anticipate
anywhere from 1-2 days for processing,
depending on the season. Winter is routinely the busiest season so please expect
a slightly longer processing time.
Orders that do not require custom parts
are normally processed and shipped within 1-2 days. Shipping time will, of course,
be determined by your location.
Can I check the status of my order?
Yes, but only if you ordered online. Just
go to www.binghamprojects.com and
click on view order status on our home
page. You will need your order number
you received in your order confirmation
e-mail.
What is the difference between
Dacron, Fast Flight & D97 string?
Dacron is the standard for traditional
bows. It has some stretch to it. Therefore,
it is a little more forgiving for your bow. It
is also a little quieter. Fast Flight and D97
dont stretch as much and therefore transfer more energy to your arrow. It may give
you increased performance. D97 will give
you slightly better performance than the
Fast Flight. Make sure that your limb tips
are reinforced to be able to use Fast Flight
and D97.
All Bingham Bows will handle the increased strain of Fast Flight and D97, as
long as the tip overlays are finished to an
appropriate thickness.
How thick should I make the tip
overlays?
If you are using Fast Flight string, a thickness of at least 1/8 should be used on the
tip overlays.
How do I measure bow length?
The easiest way to measure the length of
your bow is to start at the string groove,
follow the curvature of the limb along
the belly side of the bow, across the riser
area, and follow the curvature of the
other limb to the other string groove.
This will give you the a.m.o. bow length.
What is the difference between D.E.R./
Versamid and Smooth-On?
Both of these epoxies are excellent.

They both have the same strength, heat,
and cure time properties. They only differ in mixing ratio and viscosity (thickness). The D.E.R./Versamid (formally
known as Epon/Versamid) is a 2:1 ratio
and is thinner. The Smooth-On is a 1:1
ratio and is thicker.
If, after reading all this, you are still
asking the same question, Can I build
a bow?, the answer is still yes. Good
luck on your project, and that next trophy might well be shot using your very
own handcrafted bow.
Yours for better shooting,
