I'd love to see one in the magazine to Bill. Maybe a build along article on feather backing. I know you've done one on the site before. Definitely one in the BOM. Those are so beautiful and the craftsmanship is second to none. I've got turkey breast feathers already. Need to get the glue you used yet. Forget what you called it.

Another beauty, Bill.   :OK   Why don't you write a build along on feather backing for Primitive Archer Magazine?
