Acetone is a common solvent for Epoxy resins, surely this will weaken the shaft if you are making these composite shafts with "epoxy/carbon fibre mix"?
Interesting video. Although personally, I would never advocate the use of a heat gun to remove stuff here. Most heat guns will easily go to 500C. Quality epoxy/carbon composites might be good to up to 500C. Dependent upon how an individual holds that heat gun, distance to job, duration of heat application, will determine how much heat is actually getting into the composite. Using a two part epoxy can always be removed at around 60C. Never had any heads or inserts come out over 35 years of bow hunting using two part epoxies to fix heads and inserts. On saying that, maybe if the heat gun was set up so it's at a fixed distance to the shaft (in other words not hand held0 and on a timer. Please send me a link to that video where you show this procedure.
I have shafts that obviously have the brand and design on one side, but I am planning on using a wrap to install my vanes without covering any of the brand and design. So my question is, and it might be dumb but you never know right until you ask, does it matter on what side of an arrow shaft someone chooses to install the arrow heads and nocks?
Some people spin their arrows and cut off either side or a little off both, findingnthe straightest part. If they're brand new and .001 tolerance, dont think it matters
Torch tip cleaner Arrow primer pen and Easton glue because finding victory glue insert and even v1 arrows are a pain why isn’t it available on Amazon and finding lighted knock to fit the od is a pain but I’m talking about the rip xv 405 grain arrow at 80# hauling tail
If this is product presentation it would really help to make a close up of the insert while you were putting the glue on. That is the point of this video, and we do not get to see anything.Music on the other hand is really not necessary.
No spin tuning with fixed blade broadhead?? How do you know 100% that your insert is straight unless you spin tune? Also, you don't show how much time you have before the glue sets..... back to the broadhead, we need a little time to spin tune.
How about including the instructions in the arrow box?? I spent 130.00 on your arrows. I went to a 40 year old pro shop on long Island and the owners and two customers with high end compound bows had no clue. It's also not labeled on the arrows what type of bow they are for. I own a recurve and these are for compound bows. I'm new to Archery and spent a lot of unexpected money. Eventually, I'll get a compound bow and learn the craft but you guys need to get your act together. Right now, you have a discouraged new archer.
