Want an atlatl dart

(1/3) > >>

criveraville:
Looking for an atlatl dart.  I have a 65 inch rat snake skin to trade. 

PM me if interested

Pat B:
Do you want it made up or just the shafting?  I have some sourwood shoots that would work but I've never made an atlatl dart.  ::)

criveraville:
I was looking for one made, I got a suggesting about making one out of bamboo so I am gonna try that this evening.  I bought one this summer for that just never got around to it. 

I will be using it at school to demonstrate a push force.  Any ideals on a blunt. 

I would be interested in a sourwood shoot to make one. PM me and we can work something out.

Pat B:
Maybe a short stove bolt with a smooth dome head for cane. For sourwood just round off the big end. It would be 1/2" to 3/4" in diameter at the big end. Sourwood is pretty tough stuff. You could fire harden it for extra strength.
  Cipriano, let me see how many I have or can find and I'll PM you.

criveraville:
Thanks for the info Pat. Let me know. I've never used sourwood for anything. Will be neat. Do we have it here in Texas that you know of?

I've been hit up for the rat snake skin, but I will have more in a few  ;)
