Hey, the dude has common sense.
Sadly lacking in this gadget-infested world.
That beer bottle arrow straightener just rocked!

Got something like that around my garage somewhere from my woodie days. Best I remember I used some little wheels or something else I got from old cabinet making parts. Whatever I need is out there in my garage somewhere, I just can't find it until after I have gone out and bought another one!

I have to agee kirk. Not only is common sense lacking, but just the motivation to make and fix things is gone. We live in a world of "disposable use" junkies.

I too enjoy clays vids a lot, but if i acknowledge that, then i cant give you as much doo doo over it! :?

That's the difference between us trad folks and the modern bunch, we make stuff ourselves. I've made bow quivers, back quivers, knives, broadheads, spine testers, alignment checkers, strings, and the bows I hunt with!
