Got it, thanks.
I would think cotton cord would be easy to find at Joanne's or Michaels, if we know the dimensions.
Do you have the thickness of the coiled cable?
I do have an update on converting the other kodak 35rf knob to look like the wind knob, it was a success.
I can offer these to those who want them, I will get a tally on how many I have.

this is newCan't remember if this was accounted for in our last exchange - I'll let you tell me if I need this or not...

the cord is 2.5mm thick, ive looked at micheal, hobbylobby, joans fabrics, nothing yet.
.
2.5mm = 1/8" which is very common, unless my math is wrong.
Also, if it is cotton cord, and were pulled tight around something, it would be stretched, and thus it's diameter would be less.
If you're scaling up of the image leads you to conclude it is now 1/8" then the original cord should be wider than 1/8".
The Bowcaster Jerry made was part of a limited run. He might have extras....you’ll have to ask, I don’t know. As far as a trying to find a fully finished prop that doesn’t require any work, you can try the JunkYard here on The RPF or possibly Etsy for a makers who have a fully finished prop. This thread is a build thread though, you will most likely sacrifice accuracy for something pre-finished. If you want 1:1 screen accuracy, you should follow along here.Hello......I’m looking for a Bowcaster preferably one already made and not a kit. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction for one of reasonable quality and accuracy? Many Thanks
Re: THE ANH CHEWBACCA BOWCASTER, VERY ACCURATE !! just a little project
Oh, wow! Always wanted to do one of these!
In '98 I scored a Barnett Commando, since that's what was thought to be the correct crossbow.
