Straightening cedar shafts

(1/3) > >>

swimbill:
Hi I  just received a lot of cedar shafts, some are very good others not so straight.  What is the best method for straightening out cedar shafts.

gutpile:
sometimes you can just hand straighten..bend where it needs and hold for a second...might have to heat them a tad ..just don't overheat...gut

Pat B:
What Gut said!

Hillbilly:
One of those little hooks like you screw into the wall works pretty good, just screw it into a wooden handle, put it over the shaft, and rub it on the outside of the bend while you'r putting a little pressure on it.

Pat B:
I made a tool like Hillbilly suggested and here is a pic of how it is used.
