OK folks, finished and in the tube. Hope to get it out tomorrow. Oceanspray shoot decorated with natural pigment paints and stain then sealed with shellac. Buffalo bone point and turkey fletches are sinew wrapped. The sinew holding the point is protected with hard pitch so this baby should last for quite a while -as long as it's penetrating meat!
I've been shooting her sister (test arrow) for a week now and finally left the tip of the point in a tree. Reshaped it and been shooting ever since. Buffalo bone is pretty resilient but I threw in an extra just for grins! I hope the recipient enjoys it as much as I enjoyed making it.
