These files are available on the Internet at: http://www.florilegium.org I have done a limited amount of editing.

In the three weeks in between, this notice gets posted instead. There is now a file available that has drawings to go with the FAQ section construct.faq. It contains drawings showing the dimensions and tapering for constructing the self-flatbow and self-longbow. This file is available only by direct e-mail request to me at this time. The choices are CorelDraw version 5 or 6, or GIF format. The file will be e-mailed in uuencoded format. When sending e-mail requesting this file, please specify the desired format. Additional formats may be available if requested. The archery newsgroups FAQ is available by an e-mail request to me at: arch-faq@hpbs1686.boi.hp.com In the Subject: line put All if you want all the sections, or put the name of the section from the list below here. Since the body of the message is ignored, you need enter nothing there. At this time, you must send one e-mail for each section you want. This is an automatic reply script and I am working on getting it to accept more than one section in either the Subject: line or the body of the message. A request for the alt.archery FAQ with no section requests will be treated as a request for Info. The alt.archery FAQ sections are: arch_hist.faq History arch_orgs.faq International and local listings arch_tuning.faq Walk-back tuning method archbooks.faq Listing of numerous archery related books (inc. crossbows) archtarg.faq Target archery arrowbld.faq Arrow building asa_rules.faq ASA Tournament Rules for 1995 asia_turk.faq Asian & Turkish bow construction and some history bowfishing.faq Bowfishing hints and tips bowhunt.faq Bowhunting hints and tips charter.faq The charter for rec.sport.archery clout.faq Clout shooting construct.faq Construction for various self and long bows crossbow.faq Crossbow History, definitions, and construction information eng_bowyers.faq List of English traditional bowyers genarch.faq General archery tips and hints itbowyer.faq List of Italian primitive/traditional bowyers korean.faq Korean traditional archery kyudo.faq Kyudo (Japanese) archery history, practices, commentations serving.faq Repairing and replacing your bowstring serving string_making.faq Instructions for making and serving your own bowstring style.faq Assorted shooting style tips tradarch.faq Traditional Archery arch_hist.faq:Last-modified: 17 December 1993 arch_orgs.faq:Last-modified: 30 July 1996 arch_tuning.faq:Last-modified: 23 March 1994 archbooks.faq:Last-modified: 13 December 1995 archtarg.faq:Last-modified: 15 April 1996 arrowbld.faq:Last-modified: 15 August 1996 asa_rules.faq:Last-modified: 9 May 1995 asia_turk.faq:Last-modified: 15 April 1995 bowfishing.faq:Last-modified: 15 March 1994 bowhunt.faq:Last-modified: 6 July 1995 charter.faq:Last-modified: 31 July 1996 (File created from original RFD) clout.faq:Last-modified: 10 January 1995 construct.faq:Last-modified: 15 April 1996 crossbow.faq:Last-modified: 3 September 1996 eng_bowyers.faq:Last-modified: 6 July 1995 genarch.faq:Last-modified: 9 May 1995 itbowyers.faq:Last-modified: 31 July 1996 korean.faq:Last-modified: 10 January 1995 kyudo.faq:Last-modified: 13 October 1995 serving.faq:Last-modified: 31 July 1996 string_making.faq:Last-modified: 31 July 1996 style.faq:Last-modified: 15 April 1996 tradarch.faq:Last-modified: 03 December 1993 If you have any questions or problems, feel free to e-mail me at the address below.
