Built an arrow puller today

[cajuntec]

Not trying to be cheap... but I just bought my Excalibur Axiom SMF, added some S5 silencers, and bought another 6 Firebolts. I've expended my play funds for a while. But I saw the arrow puller and wanted one. I realized I could make one with stuff I had laying around the garage, so I broke out the saw and drill press and built this lightweight model out of a square aluminum tube, some caps I got from Lowes a while back to finish off another project I used the square tube for, and a stainless bolt and locknut. Took about 20 minutes, including finding the materials around the shop. It works well.





All the best,
Glenn

Looks good, just be careful when you pull on the nock as they have a tendency to pull out, leaving the arrow stuck in the target.

I gave up on that style and went with a set of Danny Miller's miracle arrow pulling pliers. Best $ you will ever spend if you do any amount of shooting.

My home made bolt puller.

Me too! It's also good for Luminoks and target points.

What size is that screw?

Unfortunately those type of pullers almost always pull the nocks out. If you are using store bought factory arrows, you will probably be okay most of the time, but you will lose a few
nocks with it. If using Custom arrows, the nocks are lightly hot-melted in only so you can change them out easily to accommodate others or Lumenoks.
Be careful using those.
Danny Miller Pullers will do you right every time. Always. Not trying to rain on your parade, but cave you some teeth hopefully.

Danny miller 740-483-2312......... Pullers are priced at $ 18.00 in my last paper from him and worth every penny of it IMO

[awshucks]

I'm repeating your quote because you said it well and was first to say it.

The only quibble I would make is I don't think "being careful" would help much. After a couple of nocks getting pulled out I put away my version of that type of puller. Nocks aren't secured well enough to use that type of puller.

Nocks aren't secured well enough to use that type of puller.

That's because they are so short.

[JPjunkie]

Pulled a lot of knocks out myself got Dannys pullers and haven't looked back

[walleyeslammer]

had the excalibur one and kept pulling rear inserts out, emailed boo and got a pair of danny miller's, walk up, grab and pull, no screwing, best thing since slice bread... used boo because i am also in ontario...

When I had my Equinox I was using Excalibur's arrow puller, but several nocks came out. I sent it along when I sold my Equinox.


I ordered Dan Miller's arrow pulling pliers and heavy duty stringing aid. Total price was $44.00 shipped last year. These pliers type of puller gives a more positive control over arrow removal. The heavy duty stringing aid is robust will never fail.





I took a picture of the clear thick vinyl tubing inside.



These start out as diagonal cutters with welded on custom jaws.
