Great vid , you’ve given me an idea, I’ve been using thin bamboo skewers but they don’t stabilize well due to they’re light weight. I’m gonna try cutting down some denser tree shoots.

If you take a pice of wood palm size oval shaped and glue some lether to it it will help in the knapping part . It works really well

Great video, sir! I make little ABO-style darts using dried Johnsongrass stems about 6" long. Fletch the tail-end of the shaft (like an arrow) and put some cotton at the base of the point to act as piston material! use a small twig to help shove the cotton (or whatever natural material) into the blowgun and have at it! The shaft and fletching are super light and the center of gravity is very far forward. Stable and FAST darts.

Put a light glazing of pine pitch over the sinew after you get it set, that should give ya a good seal..

You are correct that is the way to distribute the weight in a drag stabilized dart.

How bout using pine pitch and your hot glue?
@squirrelwarriors6558
@squirrelwarriors6558 7 месяцев назад
Yep, pine pitch would definitely work in place of the hot glue

Use balsa or cork for a cone. When you get it shaped, fire it to harden the wood

An idea for cone material might try punk wood it's similar to balsam wood and would work easily

I use two 2-inch squares of vinyl aisle marking tape, wrapped around a plumb bob for a form. The first layer is sticky side out, and the second layer is sticky side in. Then I mark and trim it to fit the barrel. The cones are soft so they make a good expansion seal without adding substantially to friction. I center them on the dart with a small rubber o-ring, and hold the cones on with crazy glue.

Try birchbark for your cones. Some other barks might work well also. Just a thought. Like the video

I have found many small points some only a little over one eight inch wide triangle in shape where they was a large camp probly used for hundreds of years the last to inhabit these camps were the Creeks before Jackson pushed them out I have always thought they were blowgun points other people said they were just small arrowheads
@squirrelwarriors6558
@squirrelwarriors6558 7 месяцев назад
Really interesting, maybe they were blowgun points. Opens up a whole new way of thinking about how they might of hunted. If it’s true, I would love to know what they were making their blowguns out of

I'm not aware of any ethnographic literature that indicates that any Native American groups in North America employed blowgun technology. That, of course, doesn't mean that they didn't have blowguns. It just means that I haven't read about it. Perhaps one of your followers has that type of information. If so, I'd be interested in the source.

Why dont you use thistle 33:28 downlike the cherokee and other southeastern tribes did and still do ,they also make darts from the cane they also use for the blow tubes M

I have tried thistle down but haven't had much luck getting it to seal in my blowgun. I may mess with it some more.

Too Much long Work for a projectile that Can bé used once and bé forever Lost. It is not economical. Maybe you Can use a tooth or a claw or a Bone if you do not want to use métal. A metal nail is enough i Would Say.

If you made these points from bottle bottoms, and used a fluorescent cone on the back , it becomes much more economical.

Honestly it’s about the fun of making it by hand and taking game with it it’s a great time waster if you have time
