About 8 weeks ago I went to my only local pro shop and ordered a dozen
Redline 600s. After many delays, a lack of information, and frankly
catching the shop in some questionable practices, I took the portion
of the order that was in and canceled the rest of the order.
The offshoot of this is that I have a dozen, uncut, shafts, a dozen
tunable nocks with nock tool, and 50 spin vanes.
Can anyone give me any advice on how to:
1. Cut them. I've never cut arrows myself before. I have a
high-speed dremel tool if that's acceptable.
2. Install inserts. I can go on Easton to figure out what points I
need, but that last time I installed points was with aluminum arrows.
I used a propane torch from the hardware store and some special
archery glue I can't remember. Can I do this with Carbon Composite?
3. Vanes. This one I think I'm actually covered on. I have a Beiter
Tri-Liner and I've put on Spin Vanes before.
4. Bow-String. When I last shot my bow I used an AMO 68" FastFlite 16
strand bow-string. My the local pro-shop had trouble finding these,
but hesitated when I asked him to recommend a modern-day equivalent
that I could actually purchase. What kind of string would be equivalent?
Any help would be appreciated.
