Heads up for all you cheapskates out there
« on: August 04, 2014, 10:16:46 pm »
 :laugh: The local farm store was loading up there clearance tables and I saw an opportunity knocking on my door. 6 packs of tonkin bamboo for 2 bits a pack. If you live in the Midwest it's the Bomgaars store that was previously Wheelers and then Country General. I'm cutting the tiny ends because I need to make a bunch of kids arrows.
