I keep thinking about The Trading Post and how yall tradevstsves, snake skins etc. I have no primitive things to trade except a couple arrowheads and knives that I knapped and halfed. But they are few because I break a lot plus they sell fast at the big flea market I go to. I am thinking I dont have anything to trade for a stave or started bow.  So I was up at my rock shop yesterday making a couple turquoise cabochons for pendants that were ordered last week by folks at the flea market. Lapidary was and still is my hoboy before knapping and bow making.  Anyway it suddenly occurred to me that you primitive guys might need pendants for Xmas presents. Specially turquoise since it can be mounted in or on things that are primitive. Finally here is the question...  Do yall think anyone would trade a started bow stave for jewelry pendants? I have lots of shiny gemstone pendants. Quite a bit of turquoise finished into free form cabochons and subsequently pendants. Just wondering.

Only one way to find out make a post and put it out there

I think that will work but its toxicity always detered me.
