powder in the air
Cogito, ergo armatum sum
so about a month or 2 ago I inherited some hunting equipment from an uncle. among this was all the items needed to make my own arrows complete with the saw to cut aluminum and carbon shafts all sorts of inserts an knocks and last but not least BITZENBURGER jigs. I have cut some of my older arrows from a previous bow down to my current length and had success with gluing in the inserts and they have shot well. now I have started to try my hand in fletching. got some glue recommended by the pro at my local archery shop and made up a few using old shafts that had damage fletching's. they shot well but were not that clean looking. so I tried a few more and my wraps look good, but im still getting some glue running out giving it a messy finish. with this being said I guess my question is , are there any tricks or techniques to having that nice clean look or dose it come with time and practice.
thanks in advance dave
