Nicely done. How does it fly?

Thanx, I haven't tested yet but I keep you informed. Its quite heavy so I guess it will rather be a large range boomerang that can be thrown in heavier winds. I'm sure it's perfect for hunting ducks ;-) ;-)

cool. you should ad a video of it in action

[bricobart]

I will, I only have to find a soft underground like a football field for its maiden flight because I don't even want a scar on it ;-)

This method is great and looks like it produces durable, and beautiful boomerangs. I just hate that I have to wait a year for the wood to dry :(

I know the feeling mate! That's why my very first boom was made out of a Y cut from a dead tree. For 'Mireval' it took me one year of nailbiting! ;-)

This is a great instructional. I have been making boomerangs for a few years but have yet to attempt a "Natural Elbow". I will post a link to this instructional on my boomerang group:Yahoo group: Boomerang_talk.
It would be great if you were to join us there.

Looks super and I plan to make one. Got a VIDEO to show how well yours works?

Hi Stickmaker, thanx for commenting! I didn't test it yet but I'm planning to do so and I promise you there will be a video!
