Family Quiver build a long..PIC HEAVY
« on: March 13, 2011, 03:02:00 PM »
I realize there have been similiar threads in the past regarding homemade quivers, but this really took a group effort to get this one done.
 My wife whos heavy into quilting really saved me on this one. I wanted to make my daughter "lilsqurreltracker" a quiver so she has one for when she heads out to the woods hunting for the first time with dad this year. So why not make it a build a long  :thumbsup:  

I have just about $15.00 wrapped up in materials for 1 quiver. You will need 4" thin walled PVC, nylon strap, 2 bolts and 2 washers, 2 end caps, styrafoam, spray adheasive, Fabric ( aprox 1/2 yard), and silicone calk.  

Things you will need...
 

Step #1, Cut PVC to length, put on cap ( no glue), and drill hole for bolts aprox 1" from cap on both ends
 

Step #2,Cut fabric to width you need. Be sure not to put fabric all the way to the ends of the PVC, or the caps will not slide on. I  drew a line to where  the caps slide on the tube so I know how wide to cut the fabric.  
 
 

Step #3 Line up the fabric where its suppose to go on  the PVC.  Do NOT GLUE, just tape the ends to the PVC first and line everything up.
 

Step #4 Unroll, but leave tape on so you can line everything up when its glued. Spray, and roll. This is seemed to be the hardest part. It helps having someone hold the ends while you roll it up.

Step #5 Use a knife to punch through the fabric and into the hole you drilled earlier for the bolts/straps.
 


Step #6 Attatch nylon straps with bolts..

Step #9 Caulk over bolts inside quiver. I did this only as a precausion so the broadhead doesnt hit on the bolt and dull it taking it in and out of the quiver.
 
 
Add styrafoam to the caps,

Nice job by the Frassetto family. Ashley looks pretty proud of that new quiver. Glad to see the enthusiasm hasn't died, and what a great way to spend time together.
