Pappy:
We will save anything that is left.From the pictures I don't know how much there will be.
By the way the knife is going out today.

Dustybaer:
great. thanks pappy.
i will make a side stalker style stitchless quiver (except with a closed top, to protect the fletching, when it rains) and incorporate the sheath into it.
now we need a decision on the number of arrows. the quiver will have individual "compartments" for the heads, so it would be nice to know if it's six or twelve. if i make 12 and we come up with 6 arrows, we'll look cheap. if i make 6 and we come up with 12 arrows, half of them can't be stored in the quiver.
also, can the pointknappers give me some rough dimensions (length, width) of the anticipated points? doesn't have to be metric ;D
one more question for the fletchers: what do you expect the length from the front wrapping on the fletches to the end of the arrow (including nock) to be? am i safe to assume 7" (5"-6" fletching plus 1" for the tail end, including nock)? overall arrowlength (including tip and nock) i will assume 30".
did i mention that i'm excited? ;D

Dustybaer: I'm not exactly certain how many arras at this POINT myself, I'm just going to send a bunch of points to Pat. The one's I do make are going to be roughly 3/4" to 1" wide by about 1 1/2" X 2" long - roughly???
Justin Snyder:
Pat, I could also do a couple of salt cedar. I also have a large chunk of guava that I cut off a stave I got from Manny. I could make spined nocks on the salt cedar and send them to you with the rest of the guava. There is enough guava to do all the nocks. Man it sure is fun messing with Pat's head. SORRY Pat. ::) Justin
mullet:
