Made a batch off Surewood woodies.

I had the time in the past week to make up some woodies. I wanted to try another way by using Rustoleom enamel spray paint and using Varathane stain and water base satin poly. So bare with me. I wanted to achieve a certain weight of arrow so there was some trial and error here.

I dipped one of clear coat after my yellow crown and a second dip after my cresting. My first dip is nock down, then my second and third dips are point down so the entire arrow is sealed.

I use 0000 steel wool on my arrows between clear coats but after my third and final coat I lightly sand with 220 grit sand paper then use 0000 steel wool to finish my arrow shaft.

I used Bearpaw fethers and Duco glue. I had minor issues with Bearpaw barred feathers but I made them work.

Thanks everyone, Mike Vines deserves a lot of the credit. They are far from perfect but they are good enough for me and they fly great!

Really nice arrows, the colors remind of hornets, I wouldn't want to get hit by one of those.
