My first ever stone pointed arrow.
« on: August 15, 2015, 05:17:37 am »
Was not sure if I should point this in flintknapping or here but then it is an arrow so I posted it here.

Point flint, self knapped.
point glue pine and charcoal
collected sheed feathers collected from a goose
shaft is hazel nut.
White glue on modern thread
Kids watercolor paints

In the future I will paint before adding feathers.

I give up on the pic. Here is a link.

I also have some of my atlatl pics here, if you care to brows around.

I am open to help crit or whatever.

Thanks!
The shaft is not coated yet. I am open to traditional ideas. Did the old ones coat their arrows and with what?

Thanks Douglas
