I have had a veritas dowl maker for a couple years and tonight I finly started playing with it and thats way to much funn that made a bad Monday go away I started with some junk hackberry and now I want a full set of em I made a 30inch practice arrow that isnt pretty to look at and she came in at 55# spine and 500grns on the dot sounds like that whole seasoned log I have hiding in the garage might have another purose now thanks guy for listin way to proud of this cool stuff

I've had one for while too. I've used to make over 100 shafts I guess. Not all of the arrows yet.  But I love using that thing. I hook my shop vac hose up to suck out the shavings as I am turning a shaft and it cuts down on cloggage greatly which speeds up production considerbly.
