youngbowyer:
Hi well my next set of arrows is almost on its way . With LINEN binding thread ;D
But want i want to prevent this time is when I add horn inserts i use sand paper to take of the exess horn. usually i accidently sand away the wood. How can I prevent doing this? using a file maybe? Btw thankyou everyone for helping me with my linen binding thread!

Nick:
Nice to see you have made a decision on what binding to use  :) . Also if you happen to have a belt sander, use it for such a task. I have heard it works, but be carefull ( i lost some of my finger using one).
