If you have a vice this will be easier .Place the handle of the srew driver into the vice and tighten it up.You then need a heat gun (paint stripper) then gently heat up the metal rod of the screw driver after 10-15 seconds turn off the heat gun then get the spin wing align it to the driver and press down with your fingers and smooth out any creases as best as you can.Although it might not totally iron out the creases it does but the curl back into the damaged spin wing and will be good enough to use again..
If any one as similar tips please tellCheers  |
I actually find that for most damage, you can simploy "pop" it back out, in place. You do this by gently rolling all the wings against the direction of curl, so that they lie flat against the shaft. I give the arrow shaft about 3 or 4 rotations, and then let go, and they usuall pop up as good as new.
