Stealthy, that's a GREAT lookin' arrow! If mine turn out that nice, I'll be ecstatic. With your's and everyone else here's help, I'm optimistic.

Again, great job!

heck Mq you'll do fine..if not you can only get better...been there, dont that, still looking for the Tshirt <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

MQ1shooter - I still have decided that in the future, I will either spray paint the crown or dip it in white Gasket Laquer, then crest and polyacrlyic dip twice, then finish it off with 3 more coats or so of clear gasket laquer. Although it takes time to do the dips, and let dry not to mention the time involved in cresting, they are worth it and I have found no better way to do it
Electircal tape works well but looks, well, like cheap electrical tape and I haven't done the fletchtape yet.

Stealthy: Then fletch with Duco, I assume?

I can give you a simpler way...go all bohning and fletch tite....might not be better as I hate the stuff but it definatly has been proven!!!

I haven't tried Bohning products - I have read too many complaints on the smell and drying time.

Fletched with DUCO - yes
