Wow maclean - very informative! asp1vip - if for your use it would be more convenient to have 5 separate cr2 files, one for each arrow - just load the desired cr2 for the desired arrow - then it can be a tad simpler than mac's tour-de-force. Make a cr2 for the first arrow and its two parts - using PHI as suggested, or following some tutorial re setup room. Then make 5 copies of that cr2. Use text editor to replace "head1" with "head2", etc.
