Nocks

Now that I've got the shafts sealed the way I want them, its time to put nocks on.

Lay your shafts and nocks out

...with your glue at hand

Find the grain and allign horizontally:

Lay a bead of glue on the nock taper

Install nock and rotate for an even lay of glue and allign the nock so the grain will be at a 90 degree angle with the string when nocked. When the nock is fully seated, remove excess glue

Allow the glue time to set, as soon as 5 minutes with the Duco Cement

And you're ready for fletching.
