Looking for donations-For: "Arrows of light"
« on: December 02, 2009, 09:44:27 am »
Getting ready to make some more "Arrows of Light" ceremonial arrows for the the Scout Troops for this coming year and could use a little help. Shafts and feather I have, but I'm in short supply of stone heads for the arrows. Right now I'm in need of eight nice stone heads. Appreciate any and all help. ART B

Good for you Art. I would love to help but I do the same thing.  All you knappers out there, this is your moment to shine. All the points you make that aren't as perfect as you would like are perfect to a 10 year old boy. Nobody will ever appreciate one of your perfect points as much as these boys will appreciate one that you think is second rate, or worse.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Art, Mullet, Saw Filer.  This is why I love this site.  There's so many people here willing to GIVE, either knowledge or in this case bring a smile to a child.  I wish I could knap, one day though.

You guys are great! I knew I could count on you. The kids really love their arrows, and such a small jester on our part reaps huge rewards later on in life. Thanks guys, I'll be getting in touch.

 Regards

Likewise. I don't make great points yet, but I have some that could be used for what you are doing. If I can help, I will be glad to donate. Just let me know.

If you fellers have a few extras and Art has all he needs, I could use a few more. I used my last hunting point on an Arrow of Light arrow the other day, and I have 3 more to make by the end of the month.  :-[

Justin,  the points I have would work ok for arrows of light, but I wouldn't say they were good hunting points. Most are small bird points and the like. Anything larger than a small bird point is kinda fat. I have a picture at work that I will post tomorrow and you can take a look.
