in america neck yokes are complicated to make just because of bows, you have to steem the wood and bend the wood, something you can’t make without a steam-box.
ofcourse, you can always buy bows, but for those who want to make their yoke completelly alone, this style could be intresting.it is used in eastern europe, romania, bulgaria, hungary, ukraine, serbia croatia,…
aanyway, here are some pictures.[IMG]http://images.google.hr/imgres?imgurl=http://mek.oszk.hu/02100/02115/html/img/2-664a.jpg&imgrefurl=http://mek.oszk.hu/02100/02115/html/2-1636.html&h=354&w=582&sz=48&hl=hr&start=2&um=1&tbnid=OI-p78oUDk1UOM:&tbnh=82&tbnw=134&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dj%25C3%25A1rom%26um%3D1%26hl%3Dhr%26sa%3DN[/IMG]

it may not look too efficient, but it works well enough, and you can combine the solution for bows with the american yoke. - AuthorPosts
