Just a quick thanks :) Now With Pics! (for real this time!)
« on: October 14, 2009, 07:18:31 pm »
I felt the need to tell all of you who've ever made an arrow or set of arrows, and posted pics, details, or just different ways of making them on here. I have just successfully made my first arrow, and i owe everything i know to those of you on here who have made some post or another about arrows youve made, or just giving tips to those of us who are in the process.
ill post a pic of it soon as i find the camera if any of you would like, its nothing special, just decided i wanted to try my hand at it, and i really enjoyed making it, so you can expect more posts later on from me with pics of arrows, and of course more questions!
so thanks again,

WildChild

UPDATE: Heres the pics of my first arrow, its not much to look at, but it flies straight, and i think i did a pretty good job, considering all i know i learned from you guys!

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.

 There you go, that's what this site is all about. Keep asking those questions.

just wanna say thanks to all of you, i just finished arrow number 2! this one was done a bit better, and i went with PatB's advice on how to put 3 fletches on an arrow, so it has 3 instead of 2, and it flies just as straight as my first one did! ;D
Thanks again,
