Default First crack with arrow's

Well guy's this is really the first timebiulding up my own arrow's I really had a bit of a problem with my jig ,so I had to go with my eye on setting the fletching's in place .but I'll get that figured out for the next set I put together. How do they look ?

Guess what they match Gibblet's new string LOL

I wish I knew how to do some of that fancy stuff these guy's do with their arrow's ,because I could really make these arrow's look sweet.

No I had to adjust my jig with my eye Gibblet ,usually the jig just turn's till it hit's the spot ,but for some reason they were off ,I must have been doing something wrong ,so I'm going to have to practice on some junk arrow's that i have .

NUBO they look fine.

One thing I've learned when fletching is to turn the machine to the same starting point for each arrow. In other word turn it counter clockwise probably one more turn after each arrow is done so you start off at the same spot in your revolutions to start fletching the shaft with your first van. This will give me better spacing between each vane and if I don't I'll get some too darn tight.

P.S. Your camera date is off a little too.
