I had a problem with the arrow slipping a little bit but I think for my first try they are all right
what do you think??
You're miles ahead of me. I usually just do a stain, a two-tone one if I am feeling fancy! These are gonna be gorgeous when they are all fletched up!

Nice job, what color feathers are you going to use?
Nice job man, They look sweet,
2 purple and 1 black with black nocks
I am doing these for a friend that doesnt know there getting them actually she is getting a bow we bought for her and these arrows so she can shoot with her husband and all of us guys
she will be very surprised I think
LOL purple seems to be a popular color with the ladies.
I'm almost finished a set 2 purple bard and one purple (solid) with a pink strip in it. Painted the shafts all white with purple and pink strips. 4" feathers
I'm also doing a set of 2 purple and one black. Each feather has a 1/8 yellow strip finished off with 7/8 of white to make up a 5" feathers.
Look better than my first set. I have to warn you that cresting is addictive.
Very good job. Cresting is as hard as it is fun and addictive. They too look better than the first set I crested. Nothing like shooting an arrow you made. Something about it just seems exactly right.
thanks for the compiments guys I really appreciate it
Shucks when you said you made them for a friend I was getting pretty excited until you said SHE didn't know. Great job Bro!
