also I wuold like to hear your openion about the best shaft diameter, I tuoght that Ill do 7mm shaft, but now I see that in steal shops the main majority of steal sticks is 6mm and 8mm. what is the best diameter to hunt?
i think a 6mm shaft would be a decent thickness of shaft. can you get it in spring stainless steel? how much does it cost where you are for this? if its cheaper maybe order some from ray odor in florida. he is a great guy, good prices and super fast when it comes to getting spears out.
whatever you choose to make your shaft out of make sure its spring stainless. i think its the best and probably would be most expensive but i had galvanized shafts and they are not as good. real rough.
where are you at ?
