Dakota Kid  I'm glad the packages made it to you in one piece. I hope you will be able to use everything. I'm sorry to hear about the bow. Those grease woods makes a really good fore shaft.

Nice material Hawk. 

Man DuBois you sure hit the jack pot with all that great materials I can't wait to see what you put together.

Got some Osage, some cane arrow shafts, heads, trade points, and all kinds of bison parts. Ribs, lower jaw bones, fur, a horn and a bag full of gator gar scales. It's all awesome. Got everything I need to make a new turkey huntin bow! Thanks again!!

Man the smiles are rolling in now! Good to see the boxes arriving!

Marco, you were very close on most of it. Red tail boa, Georgetown chert blade, and the sinew is whitetail. Everything else, you nailed it. Enjoy! Now let's see a drum head already!   >:D >:D

Holy hotcakes! That is one sweet package DuBois. From what I gather you're a good man and deserve every item.  :) Enjoy!

Thanks Clint. Problems with my computer.
Pearly sent me a couple blocks of very nice wood, some nice raw hide, enough for 2
bows I think,  some nice silk which I use a lot of, and a takendown sleeve. Haven't made a TD yet, so I guess I'll have to now! Also, some Rush drums sticks haha. Thanks Chris!

I knew you used a ton of silk thread, that spool should last a while. The wood is purple heart and goncola alvas. I knew you hadn't made a take down and I figured it was time you use some of those billets you have around. The sticks were just for fun :) They are used, but only lightly.

first I have to say, I'm finishing up a package to be shipped out today.
that being said, I got a box in the mail last night, however my grand kids were over and we were playing and I didn't get to take a pic. so here is what was in the box. WOW! I got a letter from Bjorgg in the box he said he didn't want to send me something I already had. Well he got me some thing I didn't already have. I got a really nice Red Fox pelt, an awesome Mink hide and last but not least a really cool muskrat pelt. I'm wanting to tan these hides as I do not have a plan as to what to make. I'm torn between trying to brain tan them ( i saved some buck brains) or getting a commercial tan (leaning this way) so I don't wast them. either way, these are awesome, Thank you BJorgg.. Ed
It's in my blood...

I'm really glad you like them Ed, I figured you probably had better supplies of everything else I had anyway. I wish the fox was a little darker red but it has really nice fur and still has all it gar hairs on it's side. They start losing them laying on the snow all winter. The mink and muskrat are both really good winter hides to. I think muskrat is some of the most under appreciated fur. We have some really nice winter rats.
