cresting with colored art. sinew
« on: April 26, 2012, 03:01:13 am »
I'm trying for a little different look.  I wrapped the fletching with black, red and yellow artificial sinew.  I could've done a nicer job of getting the colors even, but I'm kinda liking the look.  Josh

Very nice.  I did not even know that there was artificial sinew.

those are real nice josh-use artificial sinew for tying fletching all the time, but never thought about cresting with it.
i like it!

sorry you didnt make it into town earlier last nite
shot my trade bow for the first time a bout 9:30-think yr gonna be surprised how it looks and shoots
considering my struggles with it last time you were in town...
hope ya get a chance to shoot it before i finish it up and send it off

Spiffy looking arrows sir, nice idea!
Bowmakers are a little bent, but knappers are just plain flaky.

Thanks everyone!  This was just a trial run.  I'll try to do a nicer job on the rest of them.

Sadie, I wish I could of made it in time.  I got hung up in St. Louis for 4 hrs or I would have.  Maybe next week.  How did Wayne like his arrows?   Josh
