Just finished my first doz arrows!! Thanks for the help
« on: May 02, 2011, 03:59:00 AM »
Hey all.

Just finished my first dozen arrows.

From unfinished shafts, full length feathers, and a chopper.

I'm pretty happy with them.
Yes, there are a couple in there that are a little shorter. They were a little lower spine and needed to be shortened.

I couldn't have done it without info I've picked up here.

Thank you!

Thank you Sir.

During the making I thought " What a pain this is!"

Now, after getting them all tuned and ready there's a certain pride I'll be able to take to the woods.

It's worth it.

Anything worth doing is usally that way. Congrats, they look great.
