Nock repair

(1/3) > >>

DC:
I have some arrows that don't fit the string nicely, they are a bit loose. Does anyone have a slick way of building up the inside of the nock so the string snaps on nicely? I've tried spreading glue in the nock with mixed results, maybe lack of prep or something.

Danzn Bar:
If there plastic, I pinch them together with a pair of pliers or actually my teeth.  If they are boo or cane heat them with a candle and pinch the with pliers.
Just what I do...

DC:
They are bamboo. I just tried steaming one a squeezing it. Didn't hold. I guess I'll try harder.

DC:
Candle worked but the soot is kinda messy :D

Pat B:
Hold it higher above the flame to prevent the soot.
