You can make the one on the highlandwoodworking.com site easily. Heck I wish I had that plan before I did this a few years ago for Primitive Archer Mag.

Make sure you have plenty of outfeed blocks to keep the shaft from whiping. Otherwise you'll have pieces flying everywhere. LOL

I made about 600 maple shafts one year using this method.
