Thanks for posting the pictures! Hopefully everyone can see what we're talking about now.
I did manage to find some arrows which just barely fit --- but only w/o points, so I need to get some cut to 28.75" or so, or resign myself to removing and reattaching constantly.
Still need to work out a compartment (w/ a latch?) for armguard, glove, bow string, wax, and bow stringer and permanently attaching the cloth lining --- also need to work out something for a quiver.
Improvements / changes I'm considering:
- larger, more comfortable handle (the one I'm using is one of a pair of chest handles --- Woodcraft has a Napoleon-era handle which is better suited to one-hand carry but it may be too large --- perhaps a leather handle? Or maybe I could re-shape the handle somehow?)
- bracket for a quiver and keep arrows in that instead --- I like the fold-out arrow-holding bracket, but I really want to fit a quiver in the case --- I suppose the worst-case scenario would be an inexpensive cloth quiver which would fold down to fit in the compartment I need to fashion, but I'd like something nicer, but will probably have to make another case to have room for that.
Any thought or constructive criticism would be welcome.
