Before I commit, what would the deadline be?
I have an idea, a wonderful, delightful, stupendous idea.  But it would depend on gathering the proper materials.

That's because you take time to read the instructions (caution: not for display, for making meat only) Eddie ;D. That's why I send you more arrows then the other guys.............cause you can read! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I am in!  I am thinking of making one of my split timber carved blunt arrows. 
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

I say the only rule is it has to be handmade.why put limits on the maker?i just want one made by someone else.picasso painted what Picasso wanted to paint.if I told him what to do,it wouldn't be a Picasso.that is just how I feel about it.

I'd like to, but I'm not sure I can craft an arrow to some of the specs listed. Ugly arrows count? :D

your arrow will be fine Tracy.just put one of your knapped points on the end and it will lead the eye down to that end.
