Who's interested in the Christmas Trade this year?
You can build something send supplies or stuff you gathered. Post your draw weight and length some people build bow's or arrows to ship.
We can start shipping Dec 1st try to be shipped by the 15th.
PM me your address then I'll draw names and send them to you.

More details please?  Does pottery work for this? I should have a fair selection to choose from if I can't get something custom made in time.

Yeah pottery would be great! Just remember you've got to ship it. We've been doing this for quite a while so if you look back you should be able to see past years and the stuff people have sent. I usually keep pics of the tuff I send so if for some reason it's not there I can always post some.

I'm in Rob.    45# to 50#@26"
 Tradecraftsman and anyone not familiar with the Christmas Trade, as long as it is something you've made or supplies or raw materials and none of it has to be archery related. I've received everything from jars of honey and bees wax from a bee keeper to a hand made folding wood chair to bows, arrows, possible bag, etc. I usually wait until I find out my recipient is, study his/her past posts and try to come up with something appropriate for that person.  This Christmas Trade has always been about what you send to your recipient and not necessarily what you might receive.

I'm in!  Draw weight 40# - 45#, length 26".  A lump of coal may not be appropriate unless it has been pressure treated a couple billion years, and is nice and clear (lol) (lol)!  HO!HO! HO!  Nollag Shona!

I take it you've seen my website.  I'm not sure I have any left, and my kiln has no home right now, but we'll see :)

I did look at your website. Nice stuff. We were given a generic ceramic salt pig and it is incredible. Usually our salt stays in a block during our humid summers but since we got the salt pig it stays usable just sitting on the counter.  :OK  It's magic!

I'm in. I shot 50#@28". My forge is propane, so no coal please.  A new right elbow joint so I could use the forge more would be great.

Is there such a thing as "not archery related?
