Hector cole heads have arrived with a slight problem.

bow-toxo:
They are believed to have used sealing wax rather than plain bees wax as more re recent traditional archers have. It can be melted with a little heat and dripped into the socket and the shaft end pushed in. Reheating makes it easy to adjust the point to be dead on. The head will stay on as long as the arrow doesn't hit some hard object. I think the bluebell glue was found on bronze age arrows only.
