Title: Banded Slate.....
Post by: WOODSLORE on September 04, 2011, 07:38:58 pm: Hey guys I am looking for some banded slate for making banner stones with (Atlatl weights). One piece about 4"x2"x1" should do the trick, but if you have more I could deffinately use them.
For trade I have...
Osier shoots
Braided slings
Flint (some)
Thanks! ;D

Post by: WOODSLORE on September 05, 2011, 10:25:47 pm: How long/wide is the bow? While I dont have any rawhide, this weekend Im going to logcabinshop and they have rawhide for sale.
