bees wax

[fishfinder401]

i was just wondering if anyone wanted to trade for some beeswax, the blocks are 1lb(i think) could be a little less, i am looking mostly for large heavy spine river cane shafts or any heavy spine shafts , but i can use almost anything

[Marc St Louis]

Might be.  Would you be interested in some Meadowsweet shoots and what length are you looking for?

[fishfinder401]

probably, what is meadowsweet? and i would be looking for 33-34

[Marc St Louis]

Meadowsweet is a shrub that is widespread up here and is a member of the Rose family.  It's a tough plant and my favourite for making hunting arrows.  Unfortunately I don't have anything in that length.  I have a few raw laminated wood arrow blanks made of Black Ash of that length that I have left over from when I wrote an article on that subject a few years ago but that's about it.

[fishfinder401]

what do you mean by raw?

[Marc St Louis]

By raw I mean square blanks to be turned into arrow shafts and I only have 5 of those.  I'll have another look tomorrow to see if I have anything else at that length.

I had another look but that is all I have.  Exactly what other stuff did you have in mind?

[fishfinder401]

anything, feathers or types of flint mainly or horns of antlers, just make an offer

[Marc St Louis]

Unfortunately I don't have any of those things that I am willing to trade

[fishfinder401]

ok, that's fine, if you think of anything you could trade, just let me know
thanks
