Re: A Teaser, of sorts
The first set of arrows I made a few years ago were kind of boring. Staining, cap dipping and cresting has opened up a whole new door for me and I'm really digging it.

It is a lot of fun building them. I really enjoy it.

Re: A Teaser, of sorts
The other day I asked my son if he was shooting his Kodiak Hunter much. "No", he says, "I don't have any of my woodies left"
Guess what I'm gonna make him for Christmas? (evil laugh)
Now I just have to weasel it out of him what his favorite colors are.

Yes it's all the same hot melt glue if it's labeled Quick Stick. I see Jim now has a stick of it for glue guns now to. Ive only used the slugs.Captainkirk wrote:Thanks for the tip.

The element of surprise can never be replaced by persistence.

Very good work Captain, those look great! Take Shadows advice on the quick stick, been using it for a few years now, the same stick, good stuff.

For better or for worse, here they are. All finished except for the piles (points)
Since these were the other half of the 'Plain Jane' arrows I made 2 years ago, they are 55-60 spine mainly for my Sage, although my Griz seems to like the 60s that Jason sent me, so I will likely try them out and see if they fly OK.
