good to see someone else keeping him on his toes for a change, I says...

:P

btw, I just saw this too, but then I'm a Mexican, so you have to make allowances...

(p.s. for pc American readers, Mexican as in Victorian, one of the 'Southern' OZ states)

Clingish,
I just got a pencil sharpener type tool and did both ends of an old shaft.Then I held the tapered edge against my sanding disc and marked where the straight edge of the guide would sit .Then repeated it for the nock end taper

You can see in the pic that there is 2 bits of wood nailed to the board,one is for the point and one is for the nock angle.
There is probably better ways of doing it but this one works for me

Clinlish,

The nock taper is 11.5 degrees and the point taper is 5 degrees. Make sure that your guides are able to be ajusted a little because although all nocks and points are supposed to be of the standard taper they are not. You will have to fine tune your tapering machine so your nocks and points fit snugly.

Jeff

Mr Keith Forrestor kindly got back to me and I have ordered a stack of shafts from him :)

Going to be busy making some arrows for use on field courses. They are also going to be useful make a set of test arrows.

Happy shooting all :)
