    I just make two cuts across a board and place two washers in each slot. Space the cuts out about 20 inches. It creates two "V"s when the washers are side by side. Like this OO. Just do it on each end and butt the washers up against one another. Its pretty much free to make.

    I must confress, my brother is good at woodworking, so when I told him I was going to make an arrow spinner he completely took over the project… lucky for me. Besides the wood, the primary pieces are skateboard bearings that I purchased on Amazon. They are made by Red's and cost $15 for 8 of them. Just need to remember to put washers on both sides of the bearings so they will spin easier. Also, on the end piece, it is worthwhile to mark it with a dot where the arrow would come into contact. It makes it easier to spot a wobble. Here's some pictures:
