thread wrap busting

<< < (2/2)

Justin Snyder:
Silk thread is super strong for its diameter.  I glue everything.  >:D Justin

DanaM:
I've had problems with fletch tite stick to arra's with a finish on them before especially poly or spar varnish, I've been using Duco cement lately.

armymedic.2:
i've never had any problems with fletch tite, i ussually make my arrows with them alone, but i always use quick dip finish that is compatible.  ive taken them through rain and snow, no issues.

scattershot:
I haven't wrapped many feathers, but I do wrap nock and points on my arrows, and use nylon carpet thread. It's fairly thin, and strong enough that I can't break it easily.

MattE:
I have used artificial sinew with good results. I split the strands to get a thin string. This makes for a neater look as it doesn't spread the fletching open.
