--- Quote ---Apparently the chrysals happen just behind the tip because he repaired them by footing the arrows. Has anyone heard of this. How low does your spine have to be so that the arrow bends far enough to chrysal? Or have I got this all wrong?

They crysalled before he footed them. The footing was a repair to get rid of the chrysals.

Aaron H:
Those are gonna be sweet Mr Mike

willie:
DC,  a chrysal is a compression failure, but maybe on the arrow it was not from bending, but from hitting too hard?

Knoll, I think somewhere I read about making the tapers concave or hollow ground, if you were going to force them into the kerf method

PEARL DRUMS:
Very cool start, Mikey.

Knoll:
Got started on a shooting board to turn these squares into rounds.
It's a couple pieces, with each piece chamfered to form half of the "trough" that will hold the shaft squares.
Got 'em stuck together now.
I hate waiting for glue to cure . . . . . .
