"Hunting Bow and Arrows"
"Depending on its size and the kind of point used, arrows are effective for killing animals as large as deer, bear, and bison, or as small as turkeys, raccoons and beaver.
This bow is carved from crabapple wood with a string made of hand-twisted cordage. the arrow on the left has a stone point and radial fletching the feathers point away from the arrow shaft. The arrow on the right has a point made of a Garfish scale and tangential fletching the feathers lie alongside the arrow shaft."
"Cottontail Rabbit"
"Rabbits are common to Carolina Piedmont fields and woodlands. Although preyed upon by many animals for food, people hunt them for their meat and their fur which makes a soft, warm lining for clothing and shoes."
"Blow Gun and Dart"
"Made from hollowed stalk of river cane, a blow gun is used for killing small game like squirrels, rabbits and birds. The sharp wooden darts are fletched with thistle down, cattail down, light fur or feathers to help them fly straight. The darts are blown forcefully from the gun at the prey. Qulvers for carrying the darts are crafted from bark, cane or, like this one, a gourd."
"Gourd Water Jug"
"Large whole gourds work well for collecting and carrying water from a nearby spring or creek to the home or to water crops in the garden. A hole cut in the neck serves as a handle and spout."

The shot glass. Maybe TMI - but maybe something that is shared. The tool of the first week back for teachers and administrators - making it work and staying cool and calm. All within respectable limits. -)
These images are from two very similar projects that I've just helped my friends with. They want to be able to hold bike frames on their alignment tables by the head tube. They both purchased used bench centers, and we had to make bull nose centers for them.
The fit up needed to be very close, so we were working to within a few tenths.
The other complication was that one of the centers on each set was spring loaded and utilized a rack and pinion to withdraw it... so we had to mill those rack gears.
Seriously, at Williams Sonoma they are selling a dremel tool for carving pumpkins. No, we didn't buy one. We already have a dremel, though I doubt either of us would be willing to use it on a pumpkin.
