Title: Would like some opinions
Post by: Dave Bowers on June 02, 2009, 10:45:00 AM
I am working on a new style of finish for wood arrows and here how the first round came out.
Its sort of marbleizing on the shafts to create a camo/different look.
I have several different themes/styles, but wanted to get some opinions from fella shooters.

That's cool!   Is it a dip or spread on of some kind?    Big question for me is will it work on aluminum?   I have to shoot those garish purple and blue light Eastons because they stopped making the Legacy and camo in 1716...

Thanks fellas, just trying to gauge what people think because I am working on building arrow for folks for some extra mason jar money.

Dick the materials i use couldn't be used on aluminum, but I suspect they;d be something out there that would.

ok ok....cmon now! what is it? I think they look really nice.  Kind of like a Walnut burl.
Can you do it to arrows already fletched? only to wood? can carbons be finished like that?
Let us know how much and what to do...better get a bigger mason jar.   :bigsmyl:    :thumbsup:

They look outstanding.  I'd hate to try to find them in the woods, but I suppose that's part of the point.  :-D
