Default Fletching jig for quickspin ST

I'm looking at fletching my arrows myself , i've not tried it before and was wondering what type of jig would be suitable for Quickspin ST 2" and i will be setting them straight with no offset . Never tried this before as i said , so may need something not to technical .. if there is such a thing . Don't want to spend a fortune either .

Thanks in advance

Quikspins have that little airfoil on them so you will need a jig that uses a clamp. You could look at grayling with a straight clamp. That would be the least expensive way to go. There is also jo-jan but it costs a little more. Either way those should meet your criteria.

As brucelanthier said, the greyling or the jo jan would work very well for a starter jig. I had the Jo Jan for my first jig and it worked good. But since I got a bitzenburger, there is no comparison. The bitz is a little expensive, but doesn't an awesome job. The Jo Jan does, however, do a very good job at fletching and I wouldn't hesitate buying it. Never used a greyling...

Thanks r33h , i've just come off ebay and am looking at the bitzenburger and Bohning . Bohning is cheaper , but bitzenburger seems like the better buy in the long run ... The kickers on the Quickspin won't catch on anything will they ? , remember i'm new to this .
