Osage flipped plains “Beaver” 30#/24” (No. 124)
« on: August 18, 2021, 05:38:30 am »
The flipped tips are steamed in, side corrections and untwist is done with the heatgun. The stave was just a sliver from a regular stave.
Back is painted with thin paint of earth pigments, then particularly sanded to achieve a used look.
Upper nock is a side nock (beaver mouth), lower nock is diamond shaped. The beaver eye is tin melted into a natural little hole. Handle is a cord wrap from natural fibers.
