cresting jig

Wvfarrier:
free cresting my shafts just isnt cutting it.  has anyone made a cresting jig?

Hawkdancer:
Funny you should bring that up!  I am about to make one - I envision a base with 2 uprights, slotted to hold the arrow, the base would be about 8-10 inches and the uprights , maybe 4-5 inches.  I think the height would also hold the arrow for wrapping the fletching.  The base would really be determined by how long your crest is.   Not fancy by any means, but a heck of a lot cheaper than $140.00!

Hawkdancer, would you post a build along with pics. I'm sure lots of folks would love to see it.
 

Aaron H:
I would be interested in seeing that as well Hawkdancer

PEARL DRUMS:
I have one. I took an old cordless drill and screwed it flat on a 1 x 6 x 30 board. The chuck has a piece of rubber hose over it that gently grabs the shaft. The other end of the board just has a simple "V" cradle cut from the same board. Works fine and cost me zero dollars.
