My wife is an artist and she does all my lettering. She could do the same for this bow if that's cool with everyone.

 Sounds great, Glad to be a part. How many points are we needing? If we are talking about a full dozen we might want to spit it up between a couple  people. I getting better at points but have't ventured into the arrow making much further than that.
  Gordon thanks for the vote of confidence. From a guy of your talents and skill thats humbling to here.   Keenan

Glad to see you guys are zeroing in. Looks like ya'll got it figured out.  Looking forward to the finished product.  We(Southern) are going with 6 arrows total(I think). Some with stone points and some with field points.  If ya'll are going with any cane arrows, I have some target points that Kenneth made for cane arrows. I'll send you what you need.
   Dane, Would you make a presentation certificate for us nice southern boys down here...huh?   Pat

Sure enough, if I got your strange Southern lingo right. :)

Actually, I'm from the west coast, so I am not sure if I belong in either camp. I just happen to live up north now.

What I need, once everyone has each job decided, is the full names of each person and what they contributed.

Sounds great, Pat.

I calculated warp and weft this morning, and will be warping the loom soon. Any idea what the lenth of this bow is going to be? Tip to tip, please, just around if not exact, so I don't weave the fabric too short.

Width is not as important for making the sock.

Thanks,

Sorry guys.......was gone for a couple of days at a tournament in Omaha.  I am willing to make a knapped knife with either a wood or antler handle.  If you need points for the arrows I can whip some up in short order. 

Give me a time table and what you want and I will get to work.

You guys had a slow start but someone kicked it into low gear and off ya go!!  I'm  even enjoying seeing you Yankees doing good. 
    Them southern boys(I are one) jumped right in and blew their wad right away. Now the confusion and termoil builds as we stew in our own laziness. OH! what will we'uns do!..........in your dreams Yankee scum!!!  A bow for a bow and an arrow for an arrow!    Let the good times roll( I wish I knew the origional French)   Pat

What have we decided on the knife? It would seem to me if were gonna have stone arrowheads, we should have a stone knife....I dont have those skills; my son is the rocknocker in the family ;D. He's not quite to that skill level..... yet.
