Blunt Safety Arrow for Archery- abridged

Hey everyone! Here's a video on how I make padded arrows. These are not for any sort of combat or LARPing or shooting people, as these are still dangerous and are made of cardboard. These are just to make arrows a little safer when getting kids involved with archery or if doing shooting demonstrations in a park or other public venue.

These arrows are modled after arrows used in combat by the Khanate of the Golden Horde as far as weight goes, simply to allow realistic target practice at a lower cost.

This is the abridged version, and some parts are cut out. The full video is in three parts, one for the introduction and cutting a self nock, the second for constructing the blunt arrow tip, and the third for making duct tape fletchings and finishing up the tape wrappings.

Thanks for watching!
