Scotch blood (arrow repair) pics.

[Ray]

Simple way to save a couple of broke arrows.Fasten two pieces to a block of wood with rubberbands.Sand on belt sander.Glue with titebond wood glue.Clamp,line up by eye and let dry.The glue joint is stronger then the wood.I just hate to waste 2 perfectly broken arrows.

Your're not going to shoot these again, are you?

[Ray]

I do it all the time.If it breaks again it is in another part of the shaft.Not much differant then a laminated shaft.I also only do this near the point end,like footing a shaft.

Joints like that are plenty strong for arrow repair.
Good job, arrows ain't cheap!

Thanks Guy T.,I wouldn't want to break any of your crested arrows(nice work).

[Bjorn]

Cool and nicely done. May give that a try.

Cool.  That's pretty much what I do.  I make the glue surface 3 1/2" on each piece.  Probably overkill.  Never had one fail. The joint is stronger than the original shaft...Van
