hello, I would like to build arrows in the Chinese Han style.
I planned barrelt arrows. I have 11/32 birch shafts. They are 30"long.
My question to You: Which dimension/ length has the fronttaper? Which dimension/length has the Nocktaper? Many thanks for your help.

I am sure this have been in forum thousand times, but I am also very interested to see your flightarrows.
All included. Material, weight, where start frontataper, nocktaper... Size of nocks, feathers, surface etc.
And results whit that/those arrows.

This is like asking for dimensions for a "Sioux bow" as if every bow was identical.
You are not going to get one answer which represents every arrow in the Central Asiatic area.
Just barrel them sensibly and make the nocks, feathers and points representative of the type.
