Comments about Junior Crester Cresting Lathe:

The product would have worked fine if not for the rubber cup that was to hold the arrow shaft. This part was not concentric with the shaft of the lathe. The result was unacceptable shaft wobble. 3Rivers refunded my money promptly. I am happy with 3R, but not with this product.

Comments about Junior Crester Cresting Lathe:

I tried the homemade drill in a vise thing to save some money. I should have just started with this. This is the same unit as the Pro Crester without the .79 cent aluminum tray that is an extra $[$]. This unit fits perfectly in my handsaw mitre box which prevents vibration and slipping.

Arrow building

Comments about Junior Crester Cresting Lathe:

I bought my JUNIOR CRESTER from 3Rivers more than a decade ago and it remains one of my favorite tools when crafting arrows. The product is very durable and has taken my finished arrows to the next level. I would suggest that anyone looking for a crester go with the JUNIOR CRESTER versus the PRO CRESTER. Save a few bucks and get some arrow building supplies, because the JUNIOR CRESTER is everything you'll need in a cresting machine.

Comments about Junior Crester Cresting Lathe:

This little guy is perfect for my worktable. I have limited time with my family as it is. On the occasion that we sit down to watch a movie I can break out a small table and set up the Junior Crester and get the job done!!! Thanks 3Rivers for carrying it! It sure beats doing it freehand (yes I still carry them in my quiver)
