"A few people are worried about why it took so long to post a video. Basically, the video was delayed because of non-serious setbacks. I tried smelting iron but the blower seized due to a lack of candle nuts which I used to grease the bearings- rats ate the ones I had stored up. A lot of charcoal was wasted. Then I visited relatives and caught a flu from plane travel. I came back and started a kiln but the weather turned wet and stopped that project.Then the relatives visited for Christmas and I got sick again. Then I started working on a new, longer bow but it was taking too long. So finally I did this project as it seemed fairly easy and had a reasonable chance of success. So like I said it was just a series on non-serious holdups. I expect I'll get back to a steady rate of 1 video a month but if it's late don't worry too much. Thanks.'
