Set of cane
« on: August 07, 2011, 06:29:47 pm »
 Made these for Ken75. Thought y'all might like to see them. They are fletched with secondary wild turkey. The cock feather is dyed with orange kool-aid. 30" long. Spined 45-50 (I think 3/4 are 47#) and weigh 474-476gn Tipped with duplex points. Hope to find a way this week to ship them w/o messing upthe fletches.

Thank you bowtarist...No these are a whole differant set. I think you might be talking about some I made from birch shafts that halfeye gave me.

Thanks Rich. Ken should get some good  shooting out of them.

Hey Hillbilly, any way you can show a bit more detail or info on how to make those type of points?  They look like a dandy target head.  Thanks!

Those look great!  Cardboard tubes seem to work pretty well for shipping arras.

 Thank you very much everyone The comments are greatly appreciated.

Lee......The points are duplex nails I don't know how others do them, but this is what I do. I hold and roll the nail in my fingers while grinding the end head off (dipping in water often to keep it cooled down) Keep doing this till the end cap is ground to a point. I don't cut the end off and then grind because I want to keep as much of the weight as I can When I get them ground, they tend to weigh about 146gn each.(16 penny nail) You can adjust the weight by grinding or cutting a bit off. Hope this helps.
