Default DIY Bow Tuning Tools

DIY Tuning Tools:

I thought y'all might be interested in seeing some of my home-made bow tuning tools. So I made a collage of two of them. The pictures show my arrow spinner, and paper tuning rack. I made the arrow spinner out of a 1/2" piece of plywood I had laying around and Drawer Guide rollers from Lowes. Very cheap to make, and works very well to tune broadheads to shaft for straightness. The Paper tuning rack is made from 3/4" PVC pipe and fittings. I use spring clamps to attach the paper to the rack. Self explanatory. Also very cheap to make. I will admit I don't use the paper tuning rack, unless I have a problem I can't figure out by other means, LOL. I hope y'all enjoy these, and take it upon yourself to make your own tools when you can. Be safe.

Thanks Derby I need to make me a paper tuner. I was thinking about using the rolls of paper they sell by the masking tape in the painting department. Anyone else have any suggestions for rolls of paper. How close do you want the paper tuner to be to your bow?
