I watched this and instantly thought of clocking bareshaft arrow rotation, bareshafting in general, and archer’s paradox. It’s the same as floating shafts to find the heavy side, just a different way of doing it. If it can help arrow flight from bows with level nock travel, it will certainly help with traditional equipment.

I tried it thinking I might need to change all my fletching equipment. It worked for me
and told me my bare shaft rotation was fine.

I just use my spine tester, and find the rotation where they spine the same, then mark and fletch them accordingly.
Pretty much the same thing.

Flinger -
Unless you're shooting really cheap carbons and have excellent (consistent) form, it just doesn't matter.

Over thinking it if you ask me. We shoot on average what 20 and under? Compounds shoot way farther and faster.

3d, I overthink everything and I’m a constantly tinkering with things,,lol! Just thought it was an Interesting way to test compression/tension.
Viper, shafts are maxima red badlands, always striving for perfection, and a cvd19 quarantine had me bored af,,,lol

Some points to ponder. From a machinist viewpoint. I saw no way they insured the ends were perfectly in line. If you had a pin that fit the I.D. on each end 1/4" deep & indicated them in so they were on the same axis within .0005 then pressed the ends, evenly with enough pressure, the shaft would start compressing before it bowed & when it did bow it most likely would snap. If either end is up or down forward backward more than the other, that is the way it is going to bend. Take a light spined shaft and hold it by the ends. See how little pressure it takes to get it to bend any direction you want it too.?????
Floating, I hate to say has nothing to do with spine & everything to do with weight. The tiniest bit of weight, drop of paint, glue, anodize, seam, knot, or thicker grain ring will roll to the bottom. If carbon or aluminum has a seam it will be the heaviest & probably the stiffest but no guarantee. Seamless all bets are off. Think about it & discuss. >>>>-----> Ken
