#1 Post by WOLF » Sat Mar 09, 2013 10:26 am

Just thought I would share a photo of my latest creations :biggrin:

32 inch x 1/2 inch tapered to 3/8 inch Poplar Shafts
Horn reinforced self nocks
7 3/8 inch x 5/8 inch hand cut Turkey Fletching bound on using Linen thread
240 gn x 1/2 inch Steel Bullet Points (cause I dont think Bodkins would be liked )
These will be used for target and 3D :lol:

Great job mate!
Politics is a game played by dishonest people to gain an unfair advantage!

Never under estimate the strength of a cornered coward.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

I thought so, I had a go at making some on the lathe at work, pretty labour intensive.
