$1 fletching jig
Mark Anderson:
I saw this on here or maybe someother forum I can't remember, so I thought I'd make one for myself. The only cost was a $1 bag clip from one of the dollar stores, all the rest was scrap pieces. You can do straight, left or right with it all you do is line up the front and back of the clip accordingly.

Can't get no Simpler...or better than that...looks like it worked just fine...and for a Dollar...how can you go wrong!
half eye:
Like El D said ....dont get much better....and ya got an added bonus weather or not you intended it. The bag clip is straight so your laying on the fletch "offset" by about 2 degrees (not spiral) makes a very stable arrow ,especially for hunting arrows and give better speed than the full helical does.........most impressive sir.

Mark Anderson:
Thanks guys. It is so easy and yes I did have to look for a while till I found the metal clip. Most are plastic and are too wide at the base to even see what you're doing. I also like offset better than helical. The only twisting I do to feathers is for a flu-flu but I really never shoot them much anyway.
