Originally posted by wood carver 2: I like how that quiver turned out. I've been wanting to make one myself but I can't find a plastic tube that's light enough. If you don't mind me asking, where did you find your tube?Dave.
Originally posted by saumensch: That looks great and above all very practical Only improvement i could think off would be a little sidepocket. This could be done by using an old trouser leg as the covering and arranging the trousers side pocket to sit on the top third of the quiver, perhaps.
Originally posted by Jim Dahlberg: John Strunk showed me how to make a "tube quiver" years ago. He taught me to use the plastic tree cover tubes that you see protecting trees. They are made of a "verigated" plastic (veins running up the length of the tube) which makes the tube strong enough not to bend in the center but still flexible. Check any forester's supply site and you can buy the stuff in 4' lengths and various diameters fairly cheaply. Strongest and lightest plastic tubing you can find.
