Home Depot Garden Stake Bamboo Arrow Build-A-Long (Pic Heavy)

<< < (24/44) > >>

Strong Leaf:
Thank you to tenbrook for making a great build along. Here are my first pair. The points are obsidian and were purchased at a rock shop and I imagine that they were not made for hunting, just display. I am not sure if they will survive the test shots because they are not an uniform thickness throughout the point. Thanks again :)

tenbrook:
Your arrows look amazing Strong Leaf.....Very good job!!! ;)

vyadha:
I read through the whole thread and didn't see anything on making foreshafts. Anyone want to show how to do that bit?
Are the foreshafts tapered or are they like the 3rivers tenon cuts?

Your best bet would be to do a search here or make a new post in the arrow forum.

Thanks

From what I'm seeing, both the foreshaft, and the tenon cut horn nocks are a solution looking for a problem.

The bamboo seems good enough with a reinforced self-nock, and a glued on tip.
