If you are willing to raise fletching without including woodcutting as well as do slayer until you can learn the ability to and train your fletching to 55, fletching broad bolts is profit.

 

unfinished broad bolt is 91 gp

feathers are 15 gp

the completed broad bolt is 120 gp

 

The result is 14 gp and 3 exp per bolt made, These bolts fletch in groups of 10 so it's 140 gp and 30 exp each time you use feathers on unfinished bolts (or vise versa).

However this method is very click intensive you could actually feel some strain on your mouse hand if you attempt to do this at optimum speed.

I don't think he can do that at level 1 slayer.

 

Yew logs + bow strings actually sells, and it seems to get you a pittance of a profit, but you aren't high enough to do that either.

You're right i wasn't paying attention to his stats in his sig, i edited myself when i saw he didn't have the fletching for it :P.

Ideally, collect everything yourself.

 

With fletching, once you get a decent cash pile you can go ahead and buy all the mats. But instead of bow string, buy flax. Spin that into bow string, get some crafting experience, sell for profit. If that still makes money, it's probably the least time consuming (as opposed to cutting down the trees. You could also just buy the Longbow (U) you need).

if you want to make a profit, select a different skill...

 

id recommend making your money some other method, and just worry about leveling flethcing the fastest way you can, not caring about profit... your time will be better spent

7k yew longs can net you about 3mil. Assuming you gather/make everything yourself. And yes, that includes the nats you'd be using while high-alching.
