Smile Oceanic spear restoration

Found two bad condition Oceanic spears. Looking at them I thought I could make one good one out of the two. They have had years of sun, lots of damp so the binding, trade cotton thread, and native adhecive have rotted causing the loss of a few bamboo spikes. At the moment I am not sure of origin but they came with this rather loverly food bowl which could come from several Islands. I will post the before pics and reply with the after pics.
