2nd Annual Moon Tree Gathering

<< < (38/75) > >>

DGF:
Count me in too Clint if you have any spare. I wouldn't mind trying my hand at making my own trade points for next fall.

osage outlaw:
Bill and Dan.  I'll try and grab the blades tomorrow at work.  They make excellent single bevel points.  They are thin but very strong.  They cut stainless stock with them.  I think they are .036" thick.  I use them with cane/bamboo and add a 16 penny nail shaft right behind the point in the core of the shaft.  The point/nail combo weighs 185 grains.

Danzn Bar:
That would work great.  Thanks Clint

osage outlaw:
I got them Bill.  I cut them down to sections so they will be easier to haul.  They will make a lot of points.

Danzn Bar:
Sounds great Clint..... :)

Dan and Tracy,
Talked to Derik, and he thought 1/2" - 3/4" at the big end would be good, that way you have a good spine and something left at the fletch end.  He has used darts between 4-6 ft.   I'll cut some tomorrow and bring them to Dave's.  You two can fight over them.   :) ;)

Boy this outing is shaping up to be one cool event.  I think ... I can see hedgeapple Dave in the not to distant future wearing bib overalls.  :) ;) ::)

Till next time,
DBar
