Bitzenberger and JoJan are 2 of the best jigs.I like the JoJan-been using mine for over 10yrs now trouble free.Wherever you buy your shafts,they should cut them to length for free(most shops around me do this).I cut my own with a small cut-off saw.As for adhesives,I use Fletch-tite platinum most of the time.
You won't save alot of money at first being that you'll be laying out some cash to get started but the biggest advantage is you don't have to waste time or gas going to the bow guy to repair damaged fletches or build new arrows all the time

heres the place i go to for my arrows/supplies...they are Quick to deliver and have good prices.... http://shop.eaglearchery.com/browse.cfm/2,263.html
they will cut your arrows for you if you specify the length for 2 bucks a dozen if i remember right...just make sure you askif the arrows come with the inserts...i bought a dozen arrows one time and they didnt come with inserts.
also they have the best prices for feathers....brand AAA diecut...cheap and justas good as truflight.
they have cheap shipping too...

you can get by with just a fletching jig, fletching cement and fletching if all you want to do is fletch your own shafts. if you want to cut them to length a saw, high speed for carbon ferrel tight for aluminum or an epoxy for carbon to put your inserts in and that about does it. i use a jo-jan mono-fletch and love it. it puts a nice helicle on my shafts and they fly like darts.
