Atlatl alslmost finished ( Its finished)
mcginnis6010:
Well heres an atlatl made of cherry with a snakeskin and with a leather and hemp handle wrap. All i need to do is put an antler point on and a leather thong to go around the wrist so it doesn't accidentally get thrown and its finished.
JW_Halverson:
Snakeskin backed atlatl? Waaay cool!
Didja sinew it first? ;D
mcginnis6010:
No i didnt sinew it because of two reasons: one is i dont have anymore sinew and second i didnt know if it would make any difference or not.
JW_Halverson:
Can't wait to see it finished and a couple of darts with it! Love your work, McGinnis!
mcginnis6010:
Thanks JW, i have bamboo i can use for darts but im gonna try some autumn olive branches as the grow fairly straight and usually aren't too large of a diameter. Ive often wondered if they would make good useable arrows or darts so i cut some last winter and think im gonna try to give them a go.
