Arrow Shaft Plane Reviews

Great idea, poor design

The whole idea is great, kudos to whom ever dreamt it up, however the builder is making it on a lower level than the thinker intended, it seems.

A Little over priced

I felt for all that it intails , it was a bit over priced at over [$]. I had made a similar planing board myself from scrape lumber that works a bit better. I could NOT keep the blade from slipping loose without modifing it myself. All in all it works very well.

Wonderful Tool

It is worth every penny. I planed out some some shafts and made some nice small game arrows for jackrabbits out of 3/8" poplar squares the first week I got this tool. 3 of them spined out to about 55# and a small black and white fletched arrow with an adaptable head spined at 60# for my shortbow. This is a very good tool to have if you like making your own arrows.

I love this tool

This is really a great product. There's something about taking a piece of wood and crafting an arrow shaft that is exceedingly satisfying. It's a simple concept, but makes wonderful shafts. I guess I'm in to traditional archery as much for the feeling that comes with creation as for the shooting, and this tool allows you to do it all from beginning to end. Now if I could just read more find a consistent source of Port Orford lumber :)

I have made only two arrows with this plane, and it has taken me over 30 hours to do so. Is it normal for this process to take so long? It seems as if I am taking very little wood off at a time and this is very tedious and time consuming. just wondering i

You may want to adjust the plane blade to were you are taking a 11 years ago

You may want to adjust the plane blade to were you are taking a nice curl off of the shaft. If you get the set the blade to deep it will want to chatter and gouge the wood.

Asked by John 11 years ago

How long of a shaft will it plane?

The fixture for holding the shaft is 28 inches long but you can do a much longer shaft just by flipping the shaft end for end to plain arrows longer than 28 inches long.
