Default RE: Insert Glueing Question

Heat is not good for carbons, no matter how you apply it to loosen it up (to a field tip, etc.), no matter what other people say they do or get away with. Heat with carbons is Russian Roulette. It ruins the resins that adhere the fibers together. I prefer to use instant glues for inserts, but you have to be quick. I use a G5 ASD to square up the arrow first, then the insert. If you need to remove, you just use the jackhammer method with a drill bit. Bohning PowerBond is good too, and inserts are removeable in the same way.
