Labdad!

There are cheaper model's of jig's that will do the job that you want ,but my preference is the Bitzenburger ,it's well constructed and solid jig that will last a lifetime .Looking on AT or Ebay you may be able to find them for around 50$ U.S. But it's the only jig I'll ever use from here on in.

I really like my Jo-Jan, although some people on here hate them. The most votes will probably be for the Bitz, which is a great jig. I like bein able to fletch 6 at once though. And, you set the cock feather up or down. If you're shooting an arrow with a moveable nock though, it doesn't matter where the three feathers are because you can twist the nock to your preference.

i like my jo jan multi i've had it for years ,if you switch arrow size (diameter) ,from an aluminum to an axis yohave to mess with it a little bit to get it right but once you get the hang of it it's no problem changing it around for different arrow sizes and set ups.

I haven't used either of the ones above, but I have an Arizona EZ fletch and I like it. It will fletch all the vanes at one time, so it does one arrow really fast. It's available for skinny carbon or fat aluminum and in a variety of offsets/helicals.

Bitzenburger is the best from what I have seen and heard. I have had one for 3 years and no complaints. It will last a lifetime. All metal and no plastic. Fletching glue can never ruin it.

Bitzenburger! It cost a little more than the others but well worth it and like already stated, it will last a lifetime.

Bitzenburger! I called my pro shaop and asked them what they use, and they said only go with Bitzenburger. they ended giving me a used one for a good price. (since they had 30 of them)
