Man i tried it with no jig back in my younger day's...it dosent work so good. I suggest the shop. or eventually get a jig.
You just gotta have the right equipment. If you want to spend the money, get a Bitzenburger jig with a right helicle.Then get you a bottle of Goat tuff glue, and a zip strip arrow fletching removal tool and have at it. It really isnt hard at all if you have the right stuff. Its no big deal at all to do, and it not rocket science either. Just a little experimenting.

Get a jig. See if you can get a used Bitzenburger, they last forever so a used one might save you some bucks. Its pretty easy to do, you just gotta have a jig, some glue, and vanes. Honestly, any crazy glue will work, Crazy glue gel is best if you go that route. I use bohning fletch tight platinum. Thats pretty inexpensive and it does the job on carbons. If you use wraps the platinum works, so does the regular fletch tite for aluminums.
