Since all these surewood shooters are here hanging out...

Do these shafts taper well with a blade type taper tool?
I have the Bearpaw all metal tool...kinda like a true taper.

Keep hearing all the good about these shafts and am thinking of switching to them...just want to be sure I can taper them..lol

Thanks   :thumbsup:

You can taper that way, but if your guide istight tolerance, you may have some too tight to fit. Diameters seem to vary a tiny bit, and can cause problems. At least with my tru center its that way. Just use very sharp blades, and cut easy, especially towards the last of the cut.

Zradix, You got a good response from Shadowhntr. Totally agree
with what he said and with that we always tell people that we use a disc sander for tapering and that is what we typically recommend,
unless of course you don't have one available. Good Luck, Surewood Bob
