Great pictures. I found this piece of dowel rod and tried the woomera with it. Thrown by hand I made a distance of 16 paces. When I tried the woormera I was lucky to get 4 paces that is untill I cut a notch in the dowl as in the picture. Then I threw up to 50 paces The only problem, by now the pine resin was braking up being far too brittle only after about 4 throws. I have now ordered some Dammar resin. I would expect ongoing repairs but the orignal resin must have lasted more than 4 throws. Any answers on the resin?
