I don't remember who knapped the point but if anyone recognizes it please take credit.
The set up on the sourwood is called a "nutter". It is a 3/8" hex nut screwed on the point taper. I coat the point with super glue to harden the point and set the nut. This is a deadly point for squirrels and rabbits.

Neat idea, Pat! May have to borrow that.

Not my idea, Jerry but definitely worth passing on. I like cheap but effective.

I have a dogwood, and a hazel shaft straightened and ready, feathers cut and ground. Just gotta finish knapping a couple of points and ready to assemble. Cheers- Brendan

Was doing great until I figured out 2 of the Fletching were left wing and 2 were right wing! I think they fly funny that way!

. Got the nock cut, and the point mounted. Just have to fletch, sign, crest, finish, seal and mail!

Received an arrow in the mail last night from Mr. Ed Brooks. Not only did he send a great looking OS arrow, he sent some raw OS shaft material, a back strap sinew, pitch glue, and some bison leather. Thanks Ed for the awesome arrow! I'm stoked to make some arrows out of these shafts. I will post pictures tonight.
