Just a point of interest Nick -
I'm assuming that any arrow that left the group during this process was generally a left/right wanderer.....or did you notice any difference in up/down spread for turning the nocks?
Gotta try this out soon as possible- as much as I've read about it, I've not tried this...and it sounds far less ' loony overkill - rubber ducky ' than giving new shafts a bath to see which way they 'float' ( another method in Simon Needhams book...as much as i know 'bathing' can give you a reasonable guide - Your way sounds far more dynamic.
Smart work! and thanks for writing this one up!
