chessieboy:
How wide do you guys bore out the cane for footings and or nocks?

Pat B:
I never bore out cane. I don't use foreshafts and I use self nocks. Sometimes I do add a filler to the center hole but I use a dowel or bamboo skewer that fits already. TBIII glue will fill in any voids.

nugget:
Me too

tiknuttle:
I dont. I dont see the need in borring any thing for the nocks. I just reinforce the nock with sinew.

Hillbilly:
Same here-self-nocks and no foreshafts. Why put a piece of wood on the front of your shaft that's weaker than the rest of the shaft?
