Adjusting arrow spine with tip weight?

<< < (2/3) > >>

mullet:
  Get a thread tap and put threads inside your point. They don't have to be perfect. Then use Hot Melt and screw your point on.

Sidewinder:
Thanks for the tips guys. I will try and make sure the taper is right from now on. I also think there may be something to the oil. i thin from now on I will acetone it first. Has anyone else had any probablem with the melt on glue? or could it just be a contaminanted surface that needs to be acetoned to clean it?

Thats probabley a good idea too Eddie, a little more work than I wanted but it sounds like when you get it set it stays. If I had a thread tapper I would probabley do it but I don't so I won't unless I do....lol   Danny

I have had this problem too..glue heats up from friction goin in the target...seems worse in hay bails..you can drill and pin with a small dowal or drill and install small screw then grind off the head....Brian

Mechslasher:
try attaching you points with superglue.  it never lets go and will release when heated with a propane torch.  the heat sticks and hot glue stuff works better on carbon and aluminum shafts.

hawkbow:
for broadheads and field points i use ferrel tite and press the points against a block of wood before they cool... have never lost a point if i press it before the glue hardens...HAWK
