  Dream Catchers Tutorial - Dreamcatchers - Turtle Feathers - Artificial Sinew
Artificial sinew has an added benefit in that it is generally easier to hide a 'join', than some other materials, should an extra length be needed.
Wrap the length of sinew on an empty sewing thread spool or a short length of large-diameter dowel rod.
By first carefully wrapping the sinew flat on the spool, the twisting problem is remedied, and provides the added benefit of greater leverage while pulling the length taut as it is used.

So the number of dragons you need to kill for your likelihood of NOT getting your sinew to equal your chance of getting your sinew will be the value of N that satisfies: 0.5=(0.999)^N. Employing logarithms we can solve for N and we find our answer to be 693 dragons.
Now one should note that this doesn't mean that when you kill 693 dragons that you have a 50/50 chance of it dropping, it only means that after 693 dragons the likelihood of your NOT having recieved your sinew is equal to the likelihood of your having recieved your sinew.
what you said is wrong mate, if the sinew hasnt dropped the first time, it doesnt affect its probability the second time.
