I am intersted in being able to repair and make my own arrows. Does anyone have information to support which tool('s) to look at?

I would like to be able to fletch both aluminum and carbon but currently shoot carbons. Thanks..

welcome to the board

I have the Arizona EZ fletch and it does a good job.
The one I got was for aluminum with a right helical but I shoot carbons but that dont matter it works on both carbon and aluminum arrows.
The only thing is tho use a thin swip of glue otherwise it will squish out and you will have a mess to clean up.

A bitzenburger, Made of metal last a lifetime sells for about $60.00 at bass Pro. Does both alum and carbon.

A grayling, made of composite material, works the same as blitz, sells for about $30.00 at Bass Pro. I got the $30.00 one.

These are two of many.

Does it matter which side (left/right) helical to use? I am a left handed shooter, so do I HAVE to use left helical or no?

I bought a Bitzenberger and love it. Very flexible as to vane placement and angle. You can adjust it for any type of arrow.

I shoot left handed and put just a bit of right offset (with the straight clamp) on my carbons. The slight offset helps stabilize the arrow and still allows for plenty of vane clearance through my prong rest.

The Mouse

you can use right or left i use right it tightens my heads a little bit because of the spin

you can use your pepper spray my 12 gauge with 3 inch slugs works fine
