You cut the notches before you soak the sticks. They are pretty easy to notch out - If I remember right, I used heavy duty scissors instead of a knife, and just kind of nicked into to both sides at once.An Almost Unschooling Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07784076035361200243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-598841562237715955.post-69992246940793609782014-07-24T17:53:53.041-07:002014-07-24T17:53:53.041-07:00Hey I saw these on a few sites but my question is ...Hey I saw these on a few sites but my question is how do you cut the end with a knife?

Then I taped the two ends of the strip together to make the ring, and brought the two long sides of the rectangle together, away from the ring, and taped them together by folding tape over the seam. Finally, I folded up the bottom, and taped it closed. <br /><br />I don't know if that will make sense or not, but it's what I did :)An Almost Unschooling Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07784076035361200243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-598841562237715955.post-83741199336238815762010-12-09T15:49:40.530-08:002010-12-09T15:49:40.530-08:00How did you make your case for the arrows?How did you make your case for the arrows?Crane Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09942885078127163823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-598841562237715955.post-58651986608493526192010-11-18T01:45:46.868-08:002010-11-18T01:45:46.868-08:00Oh, too cool!
