well i learned how NOT to cut self nocks in my cane
recurve shooter:
i was working on my cane last night, got em good and strait, cut down to just a little longer than the length i need. i started cutting nocks last night. i was useing a thin serrated blade to cut the nock itself, then a piece of sand paper to get the inside of it smooth. well while i was sawing on one i went to far, split the node, and added the 3rd large scar to my right index finger sence july. :'(
anyway, after that i got a cloths hanger and got it red hot on the stove and burned the nocks in. how do yall do it with out cutting off your fingers?
mullet:
I cut mine on the band saw then clean it up with a file and sand paper.
recurve shooter:
i may just wait till this weekend and do that at my grandpa's house. he has all the tools.
scattershot:
I do mine with a hacksaw, then open it up with a chainsaw file.
