I had the Arizona fletcher, and had the glue buildup problem with it constantly. was a royal pain scraping it off those plastic arms. I never thought of a coating of oil, good idea. I also had problems with keeping the vanes in align with one another when doing all 3. I' d set the vanes into the slots so they all looked precisely the same, close them against the arrow shaft, turn the spring loaded bottom section, slide on the top capper, and let it set. Upon removal, it' d seem 9 times outta 10 I' d always get 1 vane that wasn' t on the shaft the same as the other two. I eventually gave up on it, and now use Cabelas fletching jig. I really like the jig, and never have any problems using it. You clamp each individual vane, and slide it into the slots, and up against the shaft. its all metal, so no glue sticks to it much, and if it does its easily removed. You can do 1 to 3 vanes just like the Arizona. However there' s one nice deal to this one most others don' t have. You can change degree' s of helical with the Cabelas jig. Both the top, and bottom can be adjusted so your clamps insert at any degree you want. Its great!
