Nice method, I usually buy maple logs and nats, fletch the maples into longbow u's and just alch those.
There are two options for making money off magic longbow fletching.
(You need 85 fletching for both )
*GREEN means positive profit, RED means negative profit!*
Option #1 (Slowest, largest profit):
Cutting your own logs. This takes a while and you make get under or over 100 logs per hour, but it saves you about 1k-2k per bow.
I would recommend cutting with a dragon hatchet...I know it's about 800k but it saves a lot of time over the rune hatchet.
Bow strings are currently about 140 gp (click here to see prices)
So you would spend 140ish gp, and then sell the magic longbows for about 1.4k (click here to see prices)
To make a larger profit, you could alch the longbows for 1,526gp. (click here to see price)
If you alch, you would lose 134gp from buying nature runes. (click here to see prices)
With alching your profit would be: Around +1.2k.
Without alching your profit would be: Around +1.2k also.
I would recommend this option to people that want to save up their money and have time to get 99 Fletching.
Option #2 (Faster, but with less profit):
For this option, you buy your own magic logs, (click here to see prices) but, you pick your own flax, which is easily botted, and spin your own flax into bow strings.
This option may save you about 140 gp spent on bow strings, and is fairly faster than Option #1.
Considering you pay 1,447 for magic logs and spin your own bow strings and sell your bow for 1,407, you make a profit of 40gp per bow.
I would not recommend alching your bows after this option! The cost of nature runes will bring your profit down to -3gp!
With alching your profit would be: Around -3gp.
Without alching your profit would be: Around +40gp.
I recommend this option if you have money to blow and really want 99 fletching fast.
*If you do try one of these options, please comment how it went! *

You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named 'Bush', 'Dick', and 'Colon'.
