Do you have to heat up the nail for every dart? And do you think it's worth the extra time to make them?

Hey, yes you will need to heat it up each time but it only takes a few seconds. But it is definatly worth it. Let me know how it goes for you

Good idea. It would be cool if you could heat the nail electrically (don't zap yourself). I think the purpose of the hollow in the back of darts is to improve the seal between the barrel, not increase accuracy. When the blast of air hits the hollow in the the dart, the rear rim expands and forms a nice seal against the barrel. In theory this would allow you to use a barrel that would otherwise be just a bit to loose. But what do I know. I'll have to test it when I get more foam.

you know what... that's exactly what my dad said! lol ok your most definately right. its very logical and it does work. but in the process i have noticed a much better seal and more accurate shots. but thankyou so much for looking
