Bamboo quiver
Prarie Bowyer:
Love it!. Been thinking of somthing similar myself. maybee we can work a trade?
H Rhodes:
Thanks fellows. I thought it was pretty slick. There are two stands of golden bamboo that I know of in our county. It reaches diameters of 2- 3 inches and will accomodate four or five arrows (or 12 oz cans >:D). You might could be more thorough with the punching out of the node separation and get more arrows in it, but I like the way it holds them in the middle and keeps things quiet. I am going to plant some of this stuff and get it growing at the house. It has all sorts of uses. P B send me a pm and maybe we can barter.
Prarie Bowyer:
How did you get the barriers out?
Thanks,
PB
H Rhodes:
Not hard to do at all. I took a piece of steel rod and knocked it out. It isn't really tough material, quite brittle when compared to the rest of the bamboo. As far as that subject goes, I covered the bottom with a heavier leather - I wouldn't trust the node separation for a solid bottom to the quiver. I did drill a hole in the bottom to let the water drain, just in case i get caught in a frog strangler....
half eye:
