I got the design from http://www.toolsforwoodworking.com. On this website you will find the exact plans with to scale drawings. There are more designs, like on http://www.geocities.com/plybench/bowsaw.html?200821.
The lumber was from pallets that came from Taiwan with plant material for our nursery.
I thought it was cool to make this thing low cost. the metal pins are made from door hinge pins. The tention cord is a shoe lace I bought at Albertsons.

Thanks for sharing this - I've been thinking about making a bow saw for a while and also think that pallets are a great source for hardwood. Reusing things that will end up in a landfill or rotting at the side of the road is great.
