Arrow shafts are used in the making of arrows through the Fletching skill. 15 arrow shafts can be cut from logs at Fletching level 1 by using a knife on them, granting 5 Fletching Experience. 15 feathers can be attached to 15 arrow shafts at Fletching level 1, granting 15 experience, to make headless arrows. Attaching arrowheads to headless arrows will turn them into arrows. Arrowheads cannot be attached to arrow shafts without feathers.

Making Money
An easy way for Members to make money and simultaneously gain fletching and woodcutting experience is to craft and sell arrrow shafts. No minimum fletching or woodcutting level is needed. It is preferable to start this money making journey near a large amount of trees. First, fill your inventory with normal logs by cutting down trees, but leave one space open for the arrow shafts. Then craft all the logs into arrow shafts and repeat the process until you feel like going to the grand exchange.
With one inventory worth of logs, 27 logs and 1 open space for crafting arrow shafts, you can craft 405 arrow shafts, as 1 log makes 15. When sold at the Grand Exchange, they are worth roughly 10 coins per one arrow shaft, so 405 arrow shafts will give you 4050 coins. This process takes under 2 minutes, but the profits can be good for a low level player when you take a couple extra minutes cutting down and crafting several thousand arrow shafts and then making one trip to the Grand Exchange to sell.
