but as DC points out, straightening can be more about method than tool. And not all things that have been called arrow straightners may have used for arrows.

Pat B:
Here are the ceramic electric pole insulators I sometimes use. The smoothness of the ceramic and the smooth curves is what makes them work. You might be able to find these in an antique or junk shop.



...but most of the hardwood shoots and cane I use are straightened by hand.

TimBo:
Here is the one mentioned above...and the photos are still there!

Thanks for all the input guys.  )P(

Dbars jig looks really nice and easy to use. I think I may give that one a try  :)

If you make it to Marshall you'll probably get to see him using it in person. It's as much how he uses it as how it works but it does work good.
