Fox:
I don't have a plasma cutter but I do have access to a metal bandsaw, I wonder if that would work?

Digital Caveman:
Probably better, it wouldn't burn the edges, but I think it would be slower.

Gimlis Ghost:
I was under the impression that most steel or iron arrowheads used by Indians were roughed out of barrel hoops and similar scrap metal by use of a chisel.

Flyonline:
Heck, I've got 4,000 lifetimes supplies if barrel hoops can be used - I'm in the process of pulling apart a couple hundred or so wine barrels. Might have to put a couple aside for 'ron and have a go myself  :OK

If Fox doesn't mind a question....

Do they require heat treatment/hardening at all?
