The AZ does a good enough job and is very easy to use. Whatever you choose just make sure you don't use TOO MUCH glue.
I do fletch my own.. but I use a Bitzenberger.. it's the last fletching jig you'll ever need... I have 12 of them [8D]

As for the fletchings sticking to the jig on the AZ....just dip the whole jig in acetone periodically (depending on use) and that problem tends to disappear.

We fletch with a 1 and 6 degree RH Arizona Fletcher. They work great. I think you will find that glue choice and arrow prep will have a greater impact on how well your fletching hold. Good luck!

I had a cheap $30 BPE jig and was satisfied with it. It was my first one so I didn't know what to expect. I ordered a Bitzenburger and was blown away. Certainly worth the extra $40. I would buy the Bitzenburger.
