Weasel,

Very nice! Tell us more


Thanks!  I'm glad you like them.

I made them in the medieval manner so I could take them to an annual Ren faire next month. Port Orford Cedar, 50-52# spine.  This was my first attempt at self-nocks.  I used scraps of fiberglass lamination material for the nock reinforcement.

The cresting is automotive lacquer (touch up paints) in black & gold. The pattern is just a piece of sea sponge dabbed in the gold and lightly dabbed in random patterns over the black.  Gasket Lacquer finish.  What you can't see in the photo is that I used three different shades of brown leather dye to go from dark brown at the point to a light brown at the crest.  Fiebing's alcohol based leather dye.

The fletches were cut with a Lil' Chopper, RH Traditional, then carefully trimmed to equal lengths and tapered at the ends with a dremmel tool to accept the wraps.  Fletch tape held them in place while I wrapped them with a heavy thread.  Clear nail polish over the wraps.

The reason I said IF they shoot out of my Strunk 50# BBY is that I can't shoot a bow right now. I just recently had major abdominal surgery and can't string up a bow for a couple more weeks.  I'm sure anxious to see how they fly!

Beauties - all, guys. Mine are probably the plainest I've ever used but decided to try that this year just for kicks.

Wishes for QUICK HEALING, Weasel!

posted these the other week but i'm planning to shoot these out of my osage static recurve this fall.  these are hill cane spined at 65# and with the woodsman heads they weigh in between 622 - 654gr.  not really looking forward to putting an edge on a dozen woodsman heads.

 

 

 
Thats a really neat set off arrows Sir!!!

These are my first arrows done with a crester.
I stole an idea from Grey Taylor, and I really like the results. They are Gold Tip 3555s with a spray-can two-tone crown, and Testors cresting.
The marks near the nock and the top hen feathers are the shaft numbers. The one with three yellow feathers is for squirrels.
@!@#%^&!! squirrels.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.
