Title: cresting with colored art. sinew
Post by: Josh B on April 26, 2012, 03:01:13 am

I'm trying for a little different look.  I wrapped the fletching with black, red and yellow artificial sinew.  I could've done a nicer job of getting the colors even, but I'm kinda liking the look.  Josh

Very nice.  I did not even know that there was artificial sinew.

those are real nice josh-use artificial sinew for tying fletching all the time, but never thought about cresting with it.

Thanks everyone!  This was just a trial run.  I'll try to do a nicer job on the rest of them.

Sadie, I wish I could of made it in time.  I got hung up in St. Louis for 4 hrs or I would have.  Maybe next week.  How did Wayne like his arrows?   Josh
