Has anyone here ever made arrows out of bamboo flooring? If so, how'd they turn out?
Several years ago Troy Breeding ran a bunch of bamboo flooring through his arrow shaft machine. He had a professional grade machine at the time. His results were poor at best. I ended up with dozens of his flooring shafts because he gave them all away to friends, none were arrow material.
I know someone made some hex shafts with bamboo flooring and liked it. However I can't remember who it was.
When we first started using it I ran a bunch into arrow shafts. All of the 11/32" dia I ran were 47# spine, in order to get heavier you would have to run larger diameters, can you imagine a 1/2" dia 60# shaft?
Thanks for the replies - sounds like a no-go to me!
