I Built a Self-Loading full auto Crossbow🎯

[meanwhileinthegarage]

In this video, I walk you through the process of creating a self-loading crossbow — a project born from my passion for mechanical systems and hands-on experimentation.

Rather than replicating existing models, I wanted to bring my own idea to life:
What if a crossbow could reload itself automatically?

Using garage-built components and plenty of trial and error, I developed an electric-powered mechanism that brings this concept to reality. The process involved constant prototyping, adjustments, and learning from real-world challenges.

Highlights of this build:
• A motor-driven draw system
• A custom mechanical trigger
• Live design tweaks based on performance
• And the unique reward of building an original working tool from scratch
