I've seen you post this several times, and so far, nobody has
answered the question in *my* mind.

*What* is a crossbow "prod"? Do you mean "product"?

And no -- I can't supply the answer to your question, but
perhaps if you used more familiar terminology, someone else might.

And most people will be answering in the newsgroup, not via
e-mail.

Good Luck,
DoN.

I think he's reflecting a comment I made to him, in which I explained that I
have some data he may be able to use but that my scanner is dead. I told
Håken to prod me if he didn't hear from me in a few days.

Sorry, Håken, but my scanner is still dead, and the one intended for my
son's machine isn't set up yet. Hang in there, I have you in mind, and I
would like to get it to you as soon as I can.

By the way, the next time someone comments about your English (not Don, but
I saw someone else's comment yesterday), ask him how well he writes
Norwegian. g

The prod is the "bow" of a crossbow. He wants drawings to acheive a 230
pound draw weight in 8 inches of draw.

Nope -- that isn't it, as he used the same term in the article
to which you followed up. (It is still on my news sever, so I could
check)

So -- I guess that means that you, also, don't know what a
"crossbow prod" is.

I'm wondering whether it is a single part for a crossbow, or
simply sort for "product" to mean the whole thing. Since English
appears to not his first language, I would have to say that he is doing
quite well at communicating, but there is still that term which puzzles
me.

Enjoy,
DoN.

The owner of this site sells prods.

7/32" spring steel get you 220 to 265 pounds @ 8 inches draw.

It's not a cad drawing, but it's information.

Nope, 'don't know crossbows, I just have a book article about them. I guess
only Håken knows for sure what he means.

Thank you! This may help other to answer the original
question, too.

Thanks again,

Thanks. Some others posted that after I posted, but before you
did, so I had the answer by now.

It is a strange term for a spring or bow, but then a lot of
fields develop strange jargon.

Thanks again,
DoN.
