Okay, I was reminiscing today and thought I would share how I proposed to my wife. I don't think I explained this before, but I used my first love, Patty, with my second love, woodworking, and literally used woodworking to unite the two loves!! I thought this was the place place to post something like this. I think it's okay.
A few years ago I decided that I wanted my girlfriend, Patty Ryan, a 5th Grade Elementary teacher, to be my wife. I also wanted this moment in time to be very special. To do that I took a wooden apple, bored a hole in it to form a hole and lid, then drilled a hole at an angle through the core and fabricated up the arrow tip and some fletching. The fletching however had to be removable from the
shaft. The reason for that can be seen in the next part of this thread...
