making wood arrows???
« on: December 27, 2007, 01:39:00 PM »
Can someone please list the steps involved in making wood arrows from start to finish and in order.  For starters I am not going to worry about crowns or cresting, just a plain no frills hunting arrow.  Also a list of products would be very useful.  This may be alot to ask but I have no clue where to get started.  Thank you
Jonathan

That's too hard to reinvent; there are all kinds of tutorials and videos around, including what MW said, on this site and others that you can study at your leisure and develop your own program.

Try not to laugh but heres how I do it. Go to Lowes and get however many straightest poplar dowels. 72 cents each. Cut em to length, make sure they are straight. I use spar varnish two or three coats. Stick em in a pencil sharpner, fletch em, nock em, apply the point of your choice. Shoot em. If I lose some, what the hey, they got more of em. Where else are you going to get a dozen arrows for under fifteen bucks?
