as Dnk would say, lol. Here's my second attempt w/ Az Ez. Found out mine is rt hand helical for alum and 8 degrees. The carbons are 6 degrees. Yeah, I know but they don't hit in the slot, but do touch the scope mount a tad. I was gonna pin-stripe them, but ran outta wine and my hand is shaking too bad, lol. Not real happy w/ weight variations but nothing I can figure out to do about it yet. 394 to 418
Dan, did you spray or dip the paint? I sprayed but I think some day I'll dip the shafts some day. They look good man and I bet they are easy to find and see them fly!

Don: Haven't shot them yet. Sprayed em w/ Enamel. Made a steady rest w/ hole screwed down to bench top, taped em all off and then put drill in vise w/ 8-32 bolt in jaws. Just stuck a shaft in through the hole and screwed it on drill. Tape was bearing. Gave em 2 coats, figured it was faster than wiping runs off and starting over. Got three that are 417, 418, 418, those will work in Paradox. The rest came out w/in a few grains of 397. Gotta cut up deer tomorrow and get some wood hauled, been fooling around w/ xbows too much, lol.
I'm far from being artistic (I dream in black and white crayon) but I think it needs some colour at the black/white line. I would add a fade job or a bright crest. Just my worthless opinion. Hey, ask your girlfriend what she thinks! LOL! Maybe some flowers or something! Hehehehehehe

Dan, them be right down pretty tarted up arrows, but why the big difference in weight?
Smoke: Don't have a clue. Must be in the shafts, shoulda weighed them before I started. I had a pile of dinged arrows I used, so maybe there are a few that arent GT's. Actually 3 of the 11 are a grain from 417, the rest are w/ in two gr of 397. Works out good, lol, as I have three that will make minimum weight for Pdox. Won't happen again, I can assure you!
