homemade lumenok build-along !!
Tom Leemans:
Cool! O.K. now show us how to do that with a cedar arrow. :p
:knothead:
Steve O:
I am not good enough to use wood arrows ;) , but if I did, how about this:
BEFORE you put the nock taper on, square up the flat end and drill out a hole to slip fit in the plastic nock. You might have to use two diameters to clear out a smaller hole for the light portion and you might have to reinforce the nock end with some thread and epoxy, but you would gain the advantage of being able to twist the nock for feather clearance.
I would think this would have to be done in a lathe, not with a hand drill.
KyleAllen:
steve O, thats exactly what i was thinking but i think a steady hand could do it without a lathe. I would for sure reinforce it though like you said. I might just serve the entire drilled portion and then super glu over the serving.
Dano:
Lumenok's would work great on rivercane, but I'll be danged if I can find a source for the bobber lights "YET" :bigsmyl: Thanks Kyle, great buildalong, I agree this needs to go into the archieves.
Osagetree:
Ingenious!
