Couple more
« on: February 07, 2012, 11:13:18 pm »
Found some time to knap last weekend and managed to keep a couple together. Keokuk and Georgetown. Plan on adding them to some tonkin and then the quiver. Thanks for looking.

Nice Tracy. looking forward to seeing the arrows.

Tower; Tonkin has such a small hole that you don't need a foreshaft. The arrows are smaller in diameter and you can taper both ends for either glue points or plastic nocks if you want. It is a lot tougher than cane or most bamboo.

Thank you for the compliments. Eddie explained it well. Sometimes I just cut in the nock and foot and sinew reinforce w/ epoxy on the point.
