Got the bevel ground, thanks to Mr. Lansky, and about 2 hours for grinding!  I need to decide on sinew for hard use or pretty thread for wall hanging, but either way, I need to sharpen my wrapping/whipping skills.  Anybody use serving thread to secure the point after setting with glue?  Also, still have to fletch - but should be able to ship early next week!

Who hasn't shipped yet?
Mine should be there by Friday.
When I get mine I need to get my daughter to email Patrick pic's of the point from P.I.T.H and from the arrow trade.

This is the arrow I'm sending to BJRogg.

Inspired by Southern Plains type arrows:
red osier main shaft with painted grooves and drilled out socket for foreshaft, red oak foreshaft with heat treated chert point (Washita type), bison sinew wrappings, pheasant wing fletching. 54# spine @ 24" span, 23" draw to the joint with the foreshaft, 31-7/8" total length, and 438 grains total weight. Paints and dyes are modern alcohol-based. Hafting glue is modern hot melt. Light application of chicken fat as sealer on shaft.

Sweet Patrick. Can’t wait to see it and hold it in my hands. Give it a spin.

Rob I still didn’t get mailed. I’m done with arrow but still need to pack and send out.

Its an arrow trade miracle. I received my arrows (yes, there was an extra one in there) from PatB the same day I shipped my arrow to dylanholderman. But I'm not going to post a picture of it and ruin the surprise!

I still need to ship but it’ll have to be Monday or Tuesday when I get to the post office.
I ended up out of town for the week but all I have left to do is put my signature on it and it’s ready to go.
