Nice and neat Martyn and I know the bamboo is a pig to cut with a knife, hence the reason I used the dremel... Please wear safety glasses when using a cutting disc, the can shatter easily.... .. Most of all, take your time and am sure you will get there... Well done again... Regards Alan

Looking good Martin,very nice work Nice to see a fellow archer,but then again if you shoot longbows you probably call me a cheat. I used to shoot compound.Won a couple of trophies but then had to give up due to a hiatus hernia. Kind Regards Nigel
