Found this cool website while browsing around for information on tools.
http://www.primitiveways.com/arrow_straightening.html
I skimmed the article, but it looked neat. I've always thought it would be neat to do a few player collaboration articles related to crafting, but I have never been motivated enough to do so.
cool.
A link to that website gets posted here at least every 6 months, I swear. These are just the ones I could find with a text search for "primitive ways."

Guess I'm in good company. Or maybe we should sticky it.
Or maybe you just have WAY too good a memory, Synth.
Your primitive ways are no match for the power of the Force of Tektolnes magick.
Plan to skim the article and see how cool it is, though, since other people seem to think it's pretty cool. Maybe it'll give me some ideas.
Psh, these guys don't know what they're doing.
Obviously the only way to straighten an arrow is to carve it straight.
And you squeeze leaf-juices on them to poison the tips.
