Title : Bohing Fletching Jig
Detailed Review : This is my first fletching jig so I do not have a basis for comparison. I found this jig relatively easy to use. There is a bit of fine adjustment needed, but once set you should be able to just glue em in. It is made of plastic, but feels sturdy. The nocks dont seat perfectly in the nock holder, so you must ensure it is fully seated as you glue the vane down. It aslo appears that you are unable to set the cock feather parralel to the string as oppossed to the conventional perpindicular. Which is bad for shooters using twin prong support style arrow rests. You can set 3 or 4 vane fletching. Purchasing additional clamps will allow you to change between straight, right or left wing. The base can easily be clamped (with your own clamp) or screwed down to the bench. All in all, not a bad product.

Title : Good for the money
Detailed Review : The Bohning fletching jig does the job at a fairly low price. Glue is fairly easy to get off the plastic parts. However, nocks don't fit that well into the base of the stand and can easily slip out of alignment once under pressure from the clamp. So you've got to fiddle a bit with each arrow to make sure you don't cock it up. So you've got to use fletching glue that gives you at least 10-15 seconds to straighten everything up.
