I'm a little late to the party here, just found your channel the other day. Love your attention to detail. I've never taken my arrow building to this level so I've learned a lot from your videos. Thanks for sharing your skills and information.
Great video!! I am a life long friend of Bryan Burkhardt. I see you have an episode with him on a moose hunt!! Good for you!! Bry is a wealth of knowledge in the traditional bow hunting world!!
This video sounds and smells just like my shop! Notice I didn't say looks, because your shop is way more organized and cleaner than mine tends to be. Great info on burning, especially the feather jigs! Ill be adding that tip to my Fletching arsenal! Thanks
Thanks Joe. I really appreciate the feedback. Making arrows is a true passion of mine. A raw shaft is my canvas for art and functionality. They will shoot as good as they look.
Dang I just commented about burning the feather shape in your other video and then this came up. So they still make a burner after 60 year. Think my cousins was home made. One comment "pew" the smell.
Instead of glue - I use glass bond. It’s made for holding beads on glass. It covers that sharp point on the feather and protects the fletch if the arrow goes under the grass. You can get it at any crafts store.
Just following up on my last comment , Andy..I'm making an Elven shaped feather .with three points from one curve to the next .Is it possible to form at the apex to a point and not a radius .I'll find out eventually..Thank you .How about a video on cresting.Most importantanly how you manipulate your brush once you withdraw the paint from the bottle.I'm thinking that you lay the brush on a piece of paper and draw it back until the brush is flat.
It is possible but I think it will be noisy for hunting. If you making them for targets, they may sound really cool. I do have a cresting video in my wood arrow class. You are correct, when I’m going for a really fine line I smash the brush into a “blade” shape.
This video is 6 yrs. old.. these arrows are on a level all their own. Flippn amazing!!!

I love your feather templates, how did you make them?
Hi Garrett, I made them using my scroll saw out of some scrap wood we had around the shop.

I am all traditional and I love the new shows
love your work can you make me a set of arrows and feathers I shoot a 40# recurve and i'm a 26 inch draw
mike sipes no problem. Contact me through the website. I have a few more questions for you so I can set you up with the right spine.
Thanks, how do you combine the different color feathers?.
I splice different color feathers together by carefully cutting them and matching up the quills.
ok Andy I'm here your asking me about spine for the arrows I'm asking you too make for me
jenis kawat apa yang di gunakan?
I'm surprised you never ever tie down a string wrap on a sharp edge on front end.
You need to talk about glue. Which is important !
