Description
Here is a working crossbow I built with synthetic plastics. The idea was to make a crossbow that wouldn't need metal or wood parts. Only the trigger has two metal bolts in it.The weapon took a medieval shape naturally; I had originally wanted a handle and stock but liked the way it looked as I was working.

This is a really nice picture of your crossbow. I really like that stirrup. The all-plastic theme is awesome as well.

Now this is talent. How does the bowstring stay in place? There don't seem to be any notches for them.

There are notches, about 3/4" from the end and 1/2" into the limb, from top and bottom. And thanks, I try to make whatever I can

Ahh, I didn't see them. Best of luck with all of your projects...I think a watch is in order so I can look at more of what you create. ^^
