Dave,

They are no wraps, I painted them as follows: Basic color red or black, then carefully with a soft brush you apply the other color with smooth strikes to get the setting of your liking.
The best way is to try it on a piece of paper before you start working on the shafts.

To all...there are some amazing looking arrows listed here.  I have built my own sine I was 13 and since I just turned 35 it's starting to add up.  

I think I'm ready to tackle some woodies of some sort.

Is there a book I can get about how to take raw shafts and work them up?  I have read several articles and threads on it but was wondering if there is a book form I can buy.

I'll have to look through 3R for one.

Anyway WOW you guy/gals are amazing.

Traditional Bowhunters Handbook by T.J. Conrads explains how to make wood arrows.  So does Fred Asbel's first Instinctive Shooting book, and volumn three of Traditional Bowyer's Bible.  There are others as well.
