I'm just gonna throw this out there, you can get dowel rods from Lowes and any hardware store and you can sand them down to specifications.
I could take over the world...  Just need a few more million minions...

Dowels will work, but the spine is all over the map, and in IMHO, don't fly very well. Dowels that I've used tend to be very stiffly spined.

I've got a dozen Douglas fir shafts, 60-65#, tapered I'd part with for some skins. What kinda skins? Oh, each one of the shafts are signed J W Halverson. You'd have to cover or take it off unless you just wanted to poach with them.

HEY!

I still wish those shafts would have worked out for me.  I hand straightened them at least a half dozen times and had 'em pretty straight.
