Looking for String material and fur silencers
« on: December 28, 2010, 09:54:31 pm »
I am looking for some pink string material.  I want to build some NTD ;D  bows for my wife and daughter and pink strings would really look great on them.  I am also looking for a couple of beaver or otter fur sinencers.  I have sinew, turkey secondary feathers, and other stuff to trade.  Thanks.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

I dont have any pink string, but I have some shearling beaver that makes nice silencers, its cut short but looks good.  I also have some brained black fox legs that would work too.

Looked for pink Dacron myself for some girl's ...uhmm... NTD bows I made.
Doesn't exist.
What a shame.  :'( :'( :'(
Pink feathers exist though.

Maybe you can mix red and white dacron strands in your bundles for your string and get a pinkish look.

3rivers has pink in astro flight and fast flight plus.  I only need enough for 2 strings, so I really didn't want to buy  an entire spool.

I have pink fastflight and tanned beaver or racoon, as I have just started tanning hides for the year I may come up with most anything.

Ol man and Wildman,
     I am not sure exactly how much I need.  I am building a bow for my daughter that will be around 50" long and one for my wife that will be around 66" long.  Neither bow will be very heavy.  I will be making an endless loop string for each.  Would one of you guys be interested in some sinew for trade?

I am trading Rileyconcrete for some fur silencers.
