Could you please help me with another question? When tunning how do you cut the carbon arrow?
Thank You
Jim
Jim-
I've been using the corner edges of the wheels on my bench grinder. I spin the arrow as I cut. Sometimes the cut come out a little uneven. When it does, I simply touch it lightly against the side of the grinding wheel after the power has been cut to the grinder.
I use a grease pencil to mark my cut line.

Dremel high speed cutter.
I try not to breathe the dust created from cutting carbon. May not be a problem, but you can`t be too careful.
I have been considering using a cutting blade similar to that of a arrow saw on my 10" miter saw. Anybody foresee any problems with that setup? Mark
I took one of the wheel off of my bench grinder and put on a blade for a 4" angle grinder, works great for me.

I recently picked up an 8k rpm Weston arrow saw from bowhuntersuperstore for $79.00.
It's accurate, easy and fast and you can do roll cuts. It also comes with 2 arrow spinners/rollers and 3 blades. For me it was well worth the money.
Bought on of these from Harbor Freight and have cut many dozen arrow with it. They put it on sale for $20 every now and then.

I use my dull fiberglass cutting blades on my bandsaw.
