Great video, well done, as is the fletching vid.  I'll take two dozen of those arrows.  I'll have to pay you some other time though, but you know I'm good for it...... :laugh:

Thanks bro.  I'm assuming you melt the pitch and form a light coat over the sinew maintaining a smooth transition from point to shaft.

Sure thing Steve, will get right to work on those... ;)

That is right Dan...smooth transition between point and shaft ;)  Also, the"sealer" pitch blend has more wax and very little charcoal compared to the pitch blend used to set the point. Thanks for watching guys.
