Decided to do my own fletching this year and picked up a Bohning right helical jig and some Easton quick set glue. I can't believe how easy it is, now i find myself wanting to strip off the new vanes/wraps and try another color combo. I got my wraps and vanes at Bass Pro, so the selection was very slim. I hate looking like a Nugent wanna be with the zebra stripes but that's the best they had. Anyways... just thought i would share.

Great Job!

I am thinking about trying to do my own as well.

Looks great! Did you have any trouble with getting those blazers to set with the helical?

nope it was pretty simple. I did have to redo one arrow because when i went to attach the clamp to the magnetic strip it wasn't sitting flush and i didn't realize it until the glue was already dry.

Good to know, thanks for posting.

Looks great! My only advice is to buy the stripping tool from Cabelas, Bass Pro, etc. It's a little expensive but well worth it in my opinion. Have fun!

Looks great. I did mine this year with all white quickspins and white wraps.

You did a good job. Isnt it nice just taking care of busness and not haveing to wait on others.

It's very nice and kind of therapeutic if i say so myself. I find myself slowing learning the skills and acquiring the tools to soon eliminate pro shops all together.

Way to go. I understand what you mean about it being therapeutic. I am a bowyer and I can easly get lost in the shop bulilding custom bows. Yesterday I had a crap day, so I went to my shop and pulled out a longbow that is in the works. Within an hour, all worries were gone.
