Atlatls are awesome and alliteration are awesome also

Before you can make a wooden spoon, you need something to eat with that spoon.  How do you get something to eat?  You kill it with a spear.  And how do you throw that spear?  With your atlatl, of course.

I made this atlatl ages ago.  It is made of pine, so it is not terribly strong.  Perhaps I should make one of maple for when I need to hunt for survival.  And maybe Laughter will loan me a knife for skinning my prey.
