Been using the plastic Arizona for 2 years now and it is simple and fast. Flat out gets the job done in 1/2 the time. Last Saturday I sat and lazily fletched 27 arrows while watching Michigan trounce the Irish. That included strip the old vanes, drink the beers, scotchbrite the surface, drink the beers, Acetone the surface, drink the beers, start the gluing process, etc etc etc. Not a bad way to spend 3 hrs on a Saturday.
