Christmas Trade Received
burtonridr:
Received a gift from an unknown person while we were out of town.
Package included 6 seasoned shoot shafts, which looks like dog wood, but to pithy to be dogwood, so I have no idea what it is?
Also included 2 bow billets, which I think might be osage orange? but it is a total guess because I've never had osage orange.
And also some natural string/fiber material, again not sure what it is? Palm frond fiber, or yucca fiber?
Super excited to get to use different materials that I've never used!! hopefully the sender will reply with a better description of the materials ;D
Thank you very much :)

Burtonridr,
That package was from me. I thought I wrote my handle next to my name on te shipping label. But no big deal. In the box is: a pair of characters shagbark hickory billets that have been in a barn loft for 3 years, multuflora rose shafts that have been drying about 3 months, the fibers are yucca and there should be a white silk ribbon that long enough to back 2-3 bows depending on length.
I hope they’re things you can make use of.

Came home from running errands to a package on the porch from Swampman. Beautiful quiver, tons of feathers, some horn, a piece of purpleheart, and a big Nicholson file!!!!! :OK Now I gotta make some arrows for the quiver and set up an appointment with my blacksmith friend to make a knife!!! Thank you very much there Swampy!!!!! ;D

Warpath,
I wasn't sure that package was going to make it. I mailed it on December 13th and it was supposed to get to you on the 19th. I am really glad the USPS finally came through.

Sadly that common for USPS this time of year. Glad it made it though. It was a great way to end the year. Thank you again!!! :OK
G-Monee >:D
