During this video you will learn how to make a stone age arrow and meet Mama a good friend of mine and someone you are sure to want to follow here is the link to her Channel / @memmathecavewoman7138
Memma is a wonderful addition of incredible confidence and experience to this video, Mr Lord, the feminine toutch with much TLC put into crafting the arrow...! To coin a phrase; It was Memmarising"...!
When he said they were going to play around with some shafts, I spit my drink out..... I wonder if the pre historic flint knappers made wood handled flint draw knives. I think that would be a great tool for making the shafts. Native Americans used Hazel wood shafts when they could obtain them. (Softer side of hardwood) The foreshift was made of heavier mountain Mahogany, Dogwood or the like found as far back as 4k years. They have found compound spear shafts that are dated at 15k.5 thousand years back and I see no reason not to believe they did the same with arrows pre 4k years ago. I knap obsidian and I have knapped flint and the difference between the 2 is extreme! Obsidian is so easy! I have great respect for you and how easy you make knappng flint look.
This was really interesting! Might you do a video on how to make hide clothing such as you're both wearing? I would love to learn how to make my own - how you get it to fit, what you sew it up with, how to sew it, that sort of thing. Thanks!
Хорошее видео, добрые лица, не все понял, но посмотрел до конца! Ю туб иногда рекомендует уникальные и интересные ролики😀 И спустя 5 мин я понял, что нас готовят к 4й мировой, которая будет вестись с помощью камней и палок. Всем здоровья и добра!
Reenactment of the any of the various stone ages would be perhaps the most challenging periods to take on. No mammoth tusks available for constructing Paleolithic dwellings reproductions (and only way smaller steaks available), all those tedious little microliths to make during the Mesolithic (and who knows what Doggerland was like, really?), and then pushing that lot of bloody big stones around during the Neolithic (on a diet of einkorn?) Still, it's damned attractive to consider. I've been trending in that direction, but am having a hard time finding an interested woman who looks Neanderthal enough.
Once they had bronze there was no need to knap stone tools. Smelting cultures generally stopped knapping entirely once they could work bronze. The few who continued the skill are generally the Nomadic cultures, a good example being Native Americans, who certainly made and used metal arrowheads where they could, but could not produce metal themselves, supplimenting instead with stone/bone Man may have used copper knapping tools around the start of the bronze age. They certainly had and could work it, though im not aware that evidence exists, it may be difficult to tell exactly what a rock was hit with.(copper does not hold an edge, bronze and stone do, Bronze is of course about 90% copper, that little bit of tin does a lot of work). Working with copper tools is a whole bunch easier than the primative style Will uses with antler and stone. (Well..easy...as easy as knapping ever gets). Copper is an excellent substitute for blunt force tools that do not need to be hard, but it can't really be used to make any of the objects knapping produces such as blades, drills and points. All of those perform better in bronze than stone though
You ... you just stuck two entire feathers on the side of your arrow and called it fletching. >_> Idk what museums you guys are going to but I've never seen that outside of children trying to make arrows.
The style of fletching in this video is extremely similar, in fact almost identical to the cherokee method of fletching. You sound as though you've watched a dozen movies and RU-vid videos and now consider yourself an expert on primitive archery.
You can have 4 fletches on an arrow, have seen modern recurve bows shoot 4 fletch arrows. I suspect in Stone Age, they hadn't mastered the art of splitting a feather either.
It's also a good way to use smaller feathers, right now I can walk outside and pick up wood pigeon feathers of all types, primary, secondary and tail feathers are all usable.
very important to introduce children to real basic stuff like this in today's synthetic world should be a formal part of their education keep them in touch with reality
How to make pine pitch glue Collect the resin from a pine tree. ... Melt the resin. ... Add 1 part hardwood charcoal powder. ... Add 1 part filler material. ... If you wish to make the resultant glue more flexible, so it can be easily worked, add one part fat, tallow, or beeswax to the mixture. Mix thoroughly. Apply using a stick.
I have a feeling one of these stone blades is going to end up in a post of a british police station's facebook, bragging about how they courageously removed it from the street.
Be interested to know the combination of the glue and how Will makes the binding. Excellent showing Memma straightening the arrow shafts, nice touch. Do you think SA people knew about that?
I split the shaft and glue a wedge in the nock then wrap . Stronger also for the pointy end with the arrowhead taking the place of the wedge. Note how strong Will’s arms are, that British flint is hard hard hard .😊
Just watched the necklace video, the comment section is turned off, just wanted to say nice job. Can you sell red ochre on your online store? I would like to purchase some from you.
