Oh, and that fluffy little number is a muntjac deer tail I got at work. The perks of being a chef it's going to feature on the quiver/holster.

Thanks for the replys.

What kind of range are you getting out of it? Excellent build by the way!

[Tommytinker]

Well I've only tested it up to 10 yards. It's fairly accurate up to these lengths, but slices slightly to the left. I think this is because of the spine of the arrows. Still, it makes good penatration at these distances. As a short range weapon, I think it would need to be a very accurate or lucky shot to kill, that being said, I wouldn't want to be on the dead end of an arrow slung from this thing.

This is where I'm at with the holster/quiver. It's made up of mostly horn and 4mm veg tan leather, a few rivets and some glue.

Can you post a picture with the equipment in the quiver? I'm having trouble picturing how everything fits.

[Tommytinker]

I certainly will when I've made the holes. It's by no means finished. Just a skeleton really.

In the mean time this example of an antique Rimankyu might help you see how it's going to work:

That site won't load on my work computer. I will check it out when I am at home.

You should be proud of yourself.  There is a lot of work in that bow! The full draw pic is priceless.  I knew it was small, but it is really small!! Congrats!
