Title: Homemade arrow saws?
Post by: DXH on February 24, 2016, 12:23:00 AM
Anyone made one ...I priced a saw about a year ago and was at $250. I went to order tonight $314....HOLY CRAP!!

I have a drill at home.. I can get a cut off bit for minimal... Anyone successfully made an accurate one vs paying for the one that's as high as giraffe...(you finish that sentence )

I use a small angle grinder in a jig. Both together cost about 35$. Then i attached a self made length jig and !!! an DUST collector !!. Dust from carbon is a mess for your lung“s.
For Aluminium and Carbon a small pipe-Cutter works also. But i use it only when i am optimizing arrows within bareshaft shooting at the range.

A few years back I bought one of those small cut off saws like on fea bay or at Harbor Freight. I use mine as is but I have seen some mods done for measuring and dust collection. Seems there was a post last year?
