Matched Combo
« on: July 14, 2007, 09:35:00 PM »
here are a set of poc selfnocked arrows i just finished. they are footed with purpleheart and wrapped with black silk. i also wrapped some purple silk around the dip. i made this set to go with my super mag 48. i killed a nice boar with this bow last month so i decided it needed a matching set of arrows to compliment the strip of purple in the grip. enjoy!

Great looking arrows!  :thumbsup:  

What kind of string did you use to wrap the feathers with?

thanx fellows!  the feathers are wrapped with silk.  i'll be sealing the wraps up with an epoxy finish in the next few days to help protect it from wear.  for selfnocks, i just flatten both side, drill a 1/8" hole, and widen the groove until the string fits with sand paper.  i sometimes cheat and use my 1" belt sander to work the grooves.  hopefully i will have an article coming out this fall on how i make my cane arrows and nocks.  i forgot to add that i bought these shafts off tradgang a couple mouths ago.  can't remember who i got these from.

Wow the title should read an awesome matched set
