I use Easton Low temp hotmelt. I use a field tip pounded into a alum. arrow shaft for a handle to heat the insert (brass or alum). Measure the distance that the plastic insert tool would have seated the insert to and leave it turned out the same amount. Heat the insert until the hot melt melts and push the insert into the shaft and run cool water on the shaft to cool it and set the glue. Screw the field point out and use a drill or a reemer of the right size(.204)to clear out any exas glue. Then you can remove the inserts at any time for any reason or turn all your broadheads postion with you nock or fletching. They will not come out any easier than wood or alum. arrows put together the same way and we have used them for years.
