I have a Bitzenberger jig, over 25 years old. Used for compound arrows and trad arrows. No problems.
Until yesterday. Fletching my GT trad shafts, left wing 4 in feathers. Using the left jig, and 120 degree 3 fletch. Used both glue and tape. Set screw for the 120 had to be screwed in tighter than flush ( as instructions read). I fletched and turned the shaft.
And I get two fletchs too far apart. See pic, bottom 2 feathers.
At one point, I started from scratch with instructions step by step. No good. Same problem.
Is it possible that the set screw for 120 has stripped out? Seeing that I have to crank it down so far? Is it time for a new fletching jig?
Any assistance greatly appreciated.
