Alright guys, you all know the drill. This is where you post about whatever you're working on for you trade recipient. Just be sure to leave out who that recipient is. That is of course unless its me  >:D ;) ;)

I have a box of assorted goodies already but I just checked out who I got and revamped the box a bit. All I need is a little more research to pull it all together. A little wood cuttin too  :D

Knife making begins tomorrow. I would love to give some nice points, but I would need about 200# of stone. Maybe a wood harvest. Then some sewing.  >:D Good thing I like sewing!

So hopefully this little five curve gets it done. Adding overlays and then sinewing. I know I don't have to in that order but I want a little more meat for the string when I reverse brace. Plan on attempting to make a set of 3 arrows as well. Nothing too fancy. Just the profile for now
