Compound Bow (Model)

Compound Bow (Model)

Note: This model is powered by rubber bands, never aim the object you are shooting at people or animals!

This model only requires 4 M3 screws and 1 rubber band for assembly. The model shown in my picture is an older version, which still retains the useless fake "scope". The newly uploaded blueprint is the entertainment version (useless features have been removed, retaining only the entertainment aspect)

Based on my tests, if disposable takeout chopsticks are used, they can only penetrate 1 sheet of A4 paper within 30 centimeters, but there is still danger, please be sure to pay attention to safety and aiming when playing with it

A little talk:

A real compound bow uses the spring-back force of the limbs to shoot arrows, but I tested PLA, PETG, and ABS, and none of them could provide the "spring-back" capability. Therefore, it could only be made into a rubber band powered toy that resembles a compound bow. The style in the main picture is made of translucent PETG material, Bambu's filament

What originally required 2 plates for printing has now been streamlined to just 1 plate for completion

If you don't have M3 screws, you can also find suitable screw blueprints in the Bambu software

Here are some design drawings (v1 version)

Latest Version V2

This version updates the strength of the main body by removing the holes previously used for installing fake M3 screw dampers, greatly increasing the strength of the bow body, making it more suitable for playing. Friends printing this configuration need to manually cancel printing the v1 version of the main body during printing and print the v2 version separately (available in the profile). Below are the details for canceling the position

Finally, I hope you have fun

If possible, you can also give me a boost, just one is enough (if you don't have extra) Thank you
