Tapering youth arrows
« on: February 08, 2018, 02:28:09 pm »
So first off hello from South Louisiana! This is my first post here. Kind if like a mooch. I didn't say crap for 4 years and now I want to ask for something. Please forgive me.

So my really simple question is what are you guys using to taper 1/4 inch wood arrows for kids poplar arrows? It seems none of the taper tools over found have 1/4 adapters. I guess a jig for my Ridgid sander would be ideal, but I want something I could do sitting on my couch. Excuse the laziness. Hahaha

Thanks y'all,
Matt

I've used my bench top belt/disc sander for tapering arrows for years so I'm not much help.

Oh man I totally missed this. I looked at this tool and didn't see 1/4 inch until just now...perfect.

Thanks! Crisis averted.
