More arrows

[Nonsuch]

Just knocked up these tasty beauties today, oiled with boiled linseed rather than varnished for a change (I have to admit I used pre-cut feathers - my raw turkey feathers are still awaiting the right moment...)

Those are lovely! Very much like the quiver too.

Very very nice I have a new bow on the bench that would suit them perfectly lol

 

[lub0]

wow very nice indeed. Did you make the shafts yourself?

 

[Nonsuch]

No - I have made some shafts myself from hazel wands but they don't look like this ! They also don't have consistent spine.
These are Port Orford cedar - AFAIK the only way to get hold of it is to buy the shafts ready turned and spined.
I've found it's really fun to make self-bows and arrows but for consistent shooting beyond about 10 metres I need commercially made stuff

These are sweet, nice quiver too. What's the deal with the leather "sock" on the end of the quiver? Looks cool whatever it's for, nice work!

 

[Cromm]

Nice work. Looks like you just put your arm guard on there for safe keeping nice going....

very nice I still have to get around to making my own arrows I have made a few bows so far but I am still using factory made arrows....
