Nice job! But with a box like that people at the range are going to expect you to "Robin Hood" every other arrow. >:D

That is sweet! You did real good.

That is really nice.

I have thought about building one for  a long time, in my case I will probably think about it longer before it gets done.

You brought back a piece of the past by building that case.  In the 50's and 60's most everyone had an arrow/gear case like that.  There wasn't many take downs back then so they carried arrows and gear. Some folks got fancy and had deer, bear or archery club logo's burned into the top.

A bunch of us get together on Thursday nights making bows, arrows, flintknapping and I brought up the idea of making arrow cases like that just last week.

You did an outstanding job on your case.

That things looks great.  I have one very similar that my grandfather made back in the early fifties.  It double sided for arrows only.

Yeah thats a nice box. The only box my bow and arrow go into is the back of my truck. Thats one of the reasons I like osage is because it can bounce around back there and have coolers bang into it and it does'nt hurt it any. I suppose if I had a nice takedown like that though it would deserve a case as nice as yours. Good job. Danny
