First attempt at cane/boo arras (with pics)
« on: December 17, 2008, 09:43:48 pm »
Here are some pics of my first set of tonkin arrows.  I intend on hunting with them for the remainder of the season so I had to go the glue on broadhead route.  Hopefully next year I will knap some stone heads that are usable.   I dyed them with Black Walnut dye, and used Waterlox for finish.  The hen feathers are Canada Goose primaries, and the cock feather is Turkey.  They are glued on as well as tied with Dogbane fiber.  The paint is some powdered prim. pigments that I ordered.  I wanted a more prim. look so no cresting lathe.  So don't laugh at my sloppy freehand work. ;D

Very nice indeed! The only thing missing is the "final" red finish from a good shot ;)
