@ez79776 ай бұрын
You should spin the arrows before cut and determine if one end of the arrow ‘wobbles’ more than the other. Then make a new clean cut in each end to square. Then cut the wobble out of the end that is more ‘wobbly’!! You will end up with the straightest section of each arrow.

Does is have a reverse taper to help the collar and the carbon to come together and become the strongest part of the arrow instead of the weakest? Elk shape is a great guy and really know what he is doing. I love his videos.

The rollers were just set too far apart, thus the shaft flexed. They should be really close each others, just like in the G5 tool, and you roll the shaft in between without it flexing.

i know the saw will work fine but to me the knobs are to small maybe a little different design so your fingers can turn them with a little more ease. one big thing is the squaring head is 3D printed and extremely flimsy you can see in the video keep that im mind when your turning the shaft the bottom of the jig is going to remove more material that the top
@andrewlowery9396 ай бұрын
I would say take a longer skinny broadhead that you know is straight even if you use just the shaft of a head that you can remove the blades that should work. That way any small movement will be shown more than a short wide head

Nice arrow build! However your choice of broadhead only excels in penetration not tissue destruction, you should do more research on firearms and bullets and understand better how bullets cause deadly tissue trauma/damage. A well designed 4 blade head will create more soft tissue damage resulting in death at a faster rate plus larger wound channel and more transfer of energy into the soft tissue. Educate the community, shake up the industry! Tooth of the arrow XL S 4 blade might be the best one piece 4 blade on the market?
