Making dogwood arrow shafts (video)
« on: December 26, 2012, 02:09:30 pm »
Stalkingfox ask ask a couple of questions about making shafts and I thought I would post a couple videos to answer them. These were made while at Scotts. This was his first time as camera man! I thought he did great job. I hope this helps someone anyway.

Thanks for the comments guys. These were fun to shoot! It was surprising how well the waste flakes worked on reducing those shafts. Still a lot of work though.  ::)

They are a lot of work but because they are durable you don't need as many lol.
