Just wondering if anyone has a video or a good pictoral diagram of how to splice feathers. I really like the way they look but hear there a pain to do, if not is there anyone out there that sells them I would just buy them thanks guys for any input.
Jim Rebuck of J & M traditions has a great DVD on arrow building and feather splicing
called "Advanced Arrow Building" its really detailed filmed really well and easy to fallow along with, you can get the DVD from ********* archery or just call jim and marcie they can send you one, i think you can get it cheaper from jim and marcia

Trad4life that is amazing work.
I just did the membrain splice yesterday. It took all of 1 feather to learn how to do it. Below the pictures is a quick how-to.

Have fun, and if you have any questions feel free to ask.
Trad 4 life, does that video discuss peeling the membranes, butt splices, or both?
Beautiful arrows!
Trad 4 Life, those are absolutely beautiful arrows!!!
Here is a quick video I made to show how fast this membrane method can be.

There is no way I could let go of the string with one of those arrows on it.

Yes, it's a good tutorial. here is the link to their site. (also at the top of this page) RMSG (http://www.rmsgear.com/) A great shop. I'm lucky to live a few miles away. :thumbsup:
Trad 4 Life. WOW
"arrowwood" he does butt splices
Ok thanks. The pin stripe effect is really something.
Trad 4 Life,your a sick man!!
Really nice work...may have to have a go at that soon.
thanx guys
For the arrow sellers here: can you consider selling some of your cutloffs or trims to some of us to try this? You know a dozen or so trims that we could buy to try this without costing good feathers. Many on budgets would appreciate it
Wow!!! Beautiful arrows, I like the creating on there as well

Won't need to look far if you do this to your arrows.

I picked up this DVD from Jim a few years ago at a shoot. Best couple of bucks I've spent on arrow making hands down.
