What tool do you guys use to bevel the footing on your carbon arrow?
thanks

Tubing reamer/chamfer tool
or one used for re-loading.
or emory cloth.

13x40 engine lathe

I'm assuming you're talking about the rear edge of the short aluminum shafting that is glued onto the end of a carbon arrow. If so, I just put the piece of aluminum arrow shafting in the end of my drill, like it were a drill bit, and pull the trigger on the drill and spin the end of the aluminum shafting on a flat bastard file at an angle until it becomes the chamfer that I desire. Makes it much easier to pull my arrow out of bag targets with the chamfer on the rear edge.

I use a RCBS (ammo reloading) chamfer/reamer tool

I use a little cone shaped grinding stone made for a dremel. Use it on inside and for outside bevel.

say Douglas what type broadhead is that in your picture. bought a bucket full of old heads awhile ago and there were a few of them in there.

I use a chamfer tool on the inside and then bevel the outside edge on my disk sander to make it easier to pull from targets.

I use a flap sander in my dril press>>>---> then put the footing on an old arrow shaft(sticking out a little) and round the frount turn it around and rear edges. Makes it much easier to pull from targets and looks good.
