I’m still looking for a piece of bone or suitable stone for an arrow head but some unfortunate bird conveniently left half of its wing near my campsite, so at least I got the fletching done.
I also don’t even have a bow but maybe that’s the next project then.
You know, I never really understood how fletching works until just now.
I mean, I still wouldn’t know how to do it, but I think I get the overall concept.
The primitive way is to use animal sinew instead of a modern string. You apply it wet and once it dries it shrinks tighter and glues onto itself.
