And one more tip that will save you some headaches.

As I mentioned, the paint can tend to bulge up somewhat at the end of the shaft as it runs off, even it if is fairly thin. An easy way to get around that is to NOT cut your shafts to length until after you dip. That way you can dip the shafts to a length 1" longer than you actually want. When you' re done dipping and drying, simply cut off the last 1" of the shaft that may have bulged up a bit. Then you are left with a clean and uniform end on each shaft. :)

Wow. Great looking arrows Black Frog.

I think I' ll give it a go myself, after I get a new rest. As much as I like my Whisker B. it' s hell on vanes.
