3rd Annual Moon Tree Gathering

[hedgeapple]

Tracy, I'm doing a naked sunshine dance every evening in hopes of sun days.  Man that obsidian you gave me last year was light years above my skill level.  Every flake I tried to knock off of it was swirled and spoon shaped.  By the time I got it thinned down they points were the size of nickel and still too thick. I really need a lesson on how to take a chunk of rock, read the grain and smack it so I can get a piece that I can work with.

Gutshot, I never figured you for a left wing kinda guy.  Next thing I know you'll telling me of your dreams to move to California.  haha
I'll look at my stash of feathers Saturday.  I'm pretty sure I have quite a few LW primary feathers that I'd trade you for RW feathers.  I like the Cherokee 2-fletch arrows, so secondary feathers would more to my liking, but I'll still trade you primary feathers for primary feathers.

[TRACY]

Appreciate the dance for good weather Dave! Hopefully dry and sunny this time and we can spend more time outside breaking rock and working staves. Obsidian is a good medium to learn on. I've still got some bigger chunks I'll bring and you can work it down into a point.

I checked my feathers and I just have a few LW.  I traded most of them away a while back. 

Looking forward to meeting you new guys this year.  Hope the weather is better

[Gsulfridge]

Hey guys, if any of you have any spare draw knives, I would be willing to trade staves for a couple.  My boss is moving to Alaska soon, and will be building a log home.  He needs a couple of larger ones to peel logs with and a smaller one.  If interested, bring em to the gathering.

[osage outlaw]

I wish my boss would move to Alaska 

[TRACY]

My daughter finished the drawings on my moon tree bow and I just finished my moon tree beaver hip quiver. If you all can't tell I'm excited and can't wait

[osage outlaw]

Looking forward to checking out the bow and quiver.  I'm trying to get a new quiver done in time to bring with me.   

[---GUTSHOT--->]

Mine nothing fancy by no means but it will do. I made it for a lefty but can be a switched to right handed in a minute

[Gsulfridge]

Uh oh.  Not sure I'm gonna make it.  Looks like some scheduling conflicts.
