Reverse Compound Crossbow

A compact reverse compound crossbow to shoot small coins. 

I have been fascinated with the cam system on compound bows and have made this platform to test them out for myself. By varying the diameter of the stacked cams, the leverage (and strength) of the bow can be controlled and adjusted. There is enough space between the limbs for people to mount their own designs or adaptations. The insertable limbs can be easily replaced as well. 

• All printed parts in picture are Bambulab PETG-HF filament
• Fits for 5 eurocent and 10 eurocent
•  Additionally requires:
  • 2 M4x50mm slotted flatheads
  • 9 M4x20mm slotted with nut
  • and rope. Mine was polyethylene garden rope 

IMPORTANT  - Be safe!

Do not point at yourself, others, or windows and TVs. 

The material in this print can come under a lot of stress, which will cause the model to fail sooner or later. Be sure to unstring the bow when you are not using it to prolong its life. 

The bow might also fail sooner or later due to the type of filament and printing settings.
