Cory you may want to re-consider in favor of something less addicting.............I have been attending twice a week AA meetings for years with no relief in sight. I have arrows of every spine and material imaginable! LOL!. Have a look in the how to section here and there are some very good videos available too. Don't forget to post your pics.

I agree Bjorn! Its a Nasty Habit that will lead to buying Fletching Tools, A Grinding Jig if you are Blessed with a Belt / Circular Sander. Then Feathers, and Choppers, and Nocks......... the List is Long But Distinguished!!
Try the How-To Section if You REALLY want to..
Personally, I Love to Make My Own Arrows!!
Its not all that hard either! Go Get 'Em Buddy!!

I agree with the other fellers; arrow making is an addictive hobby! You might also check out TJ Conrads' book "The Traditional Bowhunter's Handbook". He's got a nice section in there about making wooden arrows; tools you need, things to think about, etc. It's definitely a learning process so don't expect your first batch to come out perfect.
