Heres what I'm trying to show. If pictures are needed, lemme know and I'll get some up. Anyhow, if you have a spare dart next time your making a batch, give this a shot and see how it goes. Mostly helps accuracy for me.

You have to get them just right or they spin or curve in their flight.
I think we jokingly called them "bullet" darts
- "sorry we don't have Farmer's Union, we've got Oak if you like"
- "Looks like it'll be nothing for me then"

I tried something very similar to this, but it never worked for me, unless I have bad dartsmithing skills. The darts never hit the target with whatever gun I used.

So they're basically like Slug's felt and washer stefans? I'd use these, 'cept it seems like you'd have to make the slants just perfect for them to function properly... Are they just about as accurate as slug darts, then? And pictures/dart comparison videos would be nice.
I'm pretty sure they're pretty much nothing like Slug's darts unless I'm understanding him wrong.
Anyway, not a bad idea. My only problem with this would be almost encouraging people to make the ends of their darts pointy. If that began to happen, we would obviously have some serious problems.

Oh, I wasn't talking construction-wise, I was talking shape wise. The way the air flows over it looks similar to how the air would flow over those felt things Slug uses. (I forgot the name)

Dunno, if you just kept the shape like CROW has them, it seems like it would be fine...
