Title: My redneck arrow crester
Post by: Seth Stevens on March 04, 2014, 12:05:00 PM

I built an arrow crester for about $15.

1 Black and Decker re-chargeable screwdriver

1 scrap 1"x 6"

4 finish nails crossed to form 2 "V's"

1 piece of 1/4" shrink tube as a nock receiver  

Works great!

What's holding the screwdriver?

Thanks guys!

The screwdriver comes with a charger that you can screw to a wall. I screwed it to the board. That way you can run it while plugged in.

Beats the heck out of using a Hamster spinning a wheel in a cage and stopping whenever he feels up to it!    :thumbsup:

I like it! I bet it would even do double duty, and you could spin test for good broadhead alignment. Well done!

It's a Black & Decker re-chargeable. Mine is older but, I just looked at their web site and they still have a similar model.
