two-fletch test
Dustybaer:
inspired by patb, who not only makes very fine bowstrings, but also very nice 2-fletched arrows, i had to try it myself (previous experiments were less than satisfactory). thanks to the help received on this message board, i decided to take a different approach from what i used to do, so here is the result. no jigs, no glue, just free-style wrapping. i was pleasantly surprised how easy it was. i still would like a third hand, but i have something in mind that might help. i'll post pictures of it, IF it works.

How do they shoot ?

Dustybaer:
sorry pappy, don't know yet. just whipped 'em up last night (while i was surfing the message boards) and brought them into the office this morning to show them to bud, my shooting buddy. so we used the office camera to take a quick picture and post it. i had made a similar one with untrimmed fletches, which flies very nicely but is very noisy. i'm hoping the shape of these feathers will reduce noise. if i get to it, i'll mount some points tonight and give'em a try.
Little John:
Nice looking, ought to fly. Kenneth
Dingleberry:
Cool fletching Marius. :) How long are the feathers?
