These plans layout the very few pieces you need to make the simplest crossbow ever conceived with the most basic toolkit possible; a knife, a saw and a drill.
The plans compliment the YouTube video that demonstrates making the small version and shooting both large and small.
You can watch the video here on our YouTube channel
With these plans and the online video, anyone can make a small crossbow for shooting pencils at cardboard castles or a full sized version for shooting at a target in the garden.
