Over 30 years ago I used to shoot longbows in England, in the Club, which was all ex Military, we made our own bows and arrows, no internet back then, most of the tooling was done by hand, at that time, it was very expensive to buy arrows, once we had squared off the shafts, using one of the few power tools we had, we would use a plane and keep shaving corners, in a special jig, the arrow were tapered, because the bows were powerful, then hand sand them. I like your workflow and tools you have made. I went to Hungary recently and it was the first time I had shot wooden arrows since the longbow days, now I am shooting thumb draw, arrows might seem expensive, but compared to the cost of bullets, arrows are cheap to shoot and I appreciate the work that goes into them.

How did you make that dowel self centering jig that drills the holes for the nocks

What is that tool name, that makes wooden pieces circle.
