    B50 Dacron. It is what some bowstrings are made out of. I bought a big spool of it, made 3 bowstrings, and still have quite a bit left. It is what I am sewing all of my leather work with as well.


    Thanks for all of the positive comments.

    It does have some meaning, I guess. Ever since I read Beowulf the first time, I have been fascinated with the "spirit" of the wild boar and what it meant to those of long ago.

    "Boar-shapes flashed above their cheek-guards,
    the brightly forged work of goldsmiths,
    watching over those stern-faced men."
