Re: A boat, some fish and a pig.
yes, that natural string is a tricky one for me. i'm not sure how i will go about that yet. i want something that will handle the strains of drawing back a 60-65lb bow.

A boat, some fish and a pig.

Re: What material to bulid up a bow handle
most any wood will do for a handle (as its not structural) so just look for something 'pretty' that suits the bow. also leather and super glue will work.

Re: 'Tough' Cameras
as far as tough goes. the new olympus 'tough' 8010 should fit the bill. 2m shock proof, 10m waterproof, can withstand 100kg of force being placed on it, and will operate in -10*C. however, it is seriously let down in its actual picture taking/making ability. another, which performs somewhat better i...

Re: the ironbarks
clinton, glenn prefers the grey ironbark that grows (i think) roma/emerald, but has said to me that red ironbark works well also. give it a go.
daryl,
i think those bows are made by someone other than glenn. allan jones rings a bell but can't remember for sure.
