RE: Modifying shop bought arrows
OK I've made 5 arrows out of the glass fibre cheapo target arrows, I cut off the point of the target head but left the chrome body of it still in place IE I only cut off the pointy bit not the whole target head.
I then ran an 8 mm drill bit inside the 5/16 parallel field heads about 12 mm to remove the threading.
I lightly sanded the remaining target arrow head to provide a course surface for the expoxy.
I then mixed a small amount of Araldite rapid and coated the roughed up surface then slip on the drilled out field target heads, I ensured they were flush fitted and temporarily secured them in place to allow the expoxy to set.
Bingo A very sharp, very pointy steel field head attached to a budget arrow.
I'll try em out later and let you know how they perform from the Banshee.
