Sinew Substitute?
« on: May 22, 2007, 12:44:00 PM »
I know that nylon thread and superglue makes a great substitute for sinew when reinforcing self nocks, but I've been wondering: would it be enough to hold a trade point onto an arrow like I've seen sinew used for?

Sure if the trade is glued in place first.

What's an appropriate glue for gluing the trade in place?
