Post by: Mo_coon-catcher on February 23, 2023, 10:45:13 am
I just need to remember to grab a box when I’m at the store and I’ll be ready to ship when I have the address. The plus side to waiting to ship, I keep thinking of more to put in the box.

Kyle I'll get the address sent to you
Title: Re: 2022 Belated Christmas Trade

Me too.

Post by: Mo_coon-catcher on February 24, 2023, 05:16:54 pm
Here’s what I have going in the box so far. I’m not sure what kind of snake that is in the armguard but i like the copper tones in it. And in that sheath I’ve been working on is a ceramic stick and the black stick is a ferro rod that also fits in the sheath. The rawhide is some goat rawhide. Once I get a bow I’ll see how much room I have to decide what else is worth jamming in there.

Hi there,
A little late, but it seemed as if my first attempt of sending my adress wasn`t successful.But now it has had success and  another pair has matched.
I already have a few ideas what to create, but a tendency goes direction Native American art.
I hope not to foul anybody being a member of them. I`m still very intersted into ALL aspects of what has happened and what still happens!
Regards Uwe

really sad I missed this this time around. Work has been a little weird. I am often called to put on my ranger uniform and work the Visitor Center and leave my museum closed. I hope that all your exchanges were awesome!

I’m glad it made it. I hope it’s things you can make use of. There should be both a sharpening rod and ferro rod in the box. They both fit the sheath the same. Let me know if you need any tips on using the snake sheds for decorations. I’ve finally got it figured out of to make it work and look good on a bow. The next goal the the same on leather. Oh and the rawhide strips are goat hide.

I thought the black one was a ferro rod!  The goat strips will. Likely find a home on the Osage stave Clint gifted me and is waiting for my skills to catch up with it's quality!  I tested fitted the arm guard and it seems right on!  Likely range test tomorrow!  Have to figure out how to use the snake sheds.  For an old "Snake Eater", Snake is not my favorite medium (lol) :fp!

I got my Christmas Trade item from Cabinetbowguy, a nice fire starter kit. I'll post pics of it tomorrow.
Thanks, Jason.   :OK
Title: Re: 2022 Belated Christmas Trade
Post by: Pat B on March 30, 2023, 10:54:49 am
This is the cool fire kit I got from Jason. Jason, when I got the kit I had a hard time getting the shap to open then when I did it wouldn't close so I removed the snap and added an antler button closure instead. Hope you don't mind.

As you can see the kit contains a flint and steel(high carbon), some wick material in a brass tube and some paper birch bark, all in the nice leather carrying pouch.  :OK  (=)
