I love watching how different people do different tasks , and create different things using what they have available ,
Especially love the way this guy drills with a bow drill
Through bone with the end in his mouth .

Documentary from the 60's

Here is documentary info too . http://www.der.org/films/netsilik.html

Nice links. I've see some, but not all of those before. Fascinating to watch.
Thanks

Yeah ive been searching and watching vids in a lot of old threads in the forum , and getting very inspired .
Fitted string silencers made from woolen car seat covers to the old 76er recurve today and its a beautiful thing , and as inspired by an old otzi the iceman quiver making thread by enigma1 there , have also embarked on a version made from lambswool seat cover which was about to be finished but is now given a new lease too!

Really enjoying digging through all the invaluable and useful information stored in this place .
Putting it to good use !
And like a kitten with a ball of string watching where the unravelling takes me
