Six rivercanes for no kiddin

<< < (4/6) > >>

DC:
I've made many garden stake arrows and they turned out almost bullet proof but I've never even seen a piece of "cane" so I'm just curious about the difference.

mullet:
Nice set of arrows, Brian. River cane is not the same as Garden Stakes. Garden stakes is Tonkin Bamboo, a big difference in weight and strength.

DC:
Which is heavier, stronger?

Hawkdancer:
The How To sticky is in "Hot's and Build-alongside.  Right now it is at the top.  I'm no expert, but I think Tonkin bamboo is the heavier, stronger species.  I'm pretty sure that is what we used for fishing poles when I was a kid.

Pappy:
I usually heat and compress the nodes rather that file them down. Nice arrows BJ.
