How to fletch an arrow:

2. Clean the shaft with the Acetone.
3. Place the shaft in the fletching jig.
4. Clean the groove of the vane/feather.
5. Place the vane/feather in the fletching clamp.
6. Put a little glue on the vane/feather. (cover the complete surface of the groove, but do not overdo)
7. Place the clamp on the fletching jig against the shaft (applying slight pressure).
8. Let it rest for a few minutes, so the vane can attach.
9. Repeat the steps 4 to 8 for the 2nd and 3rd vane.
10. Remove the arrow from the fletching jig.
11. Put a small drop of glue at both ends of all the vanes/feathers.

Do not use the arrow for the next 24h (glue needs to bind).
(preferably store them separately, not in a tight quiver or arrow tube)

After 24h your new fletched arrows are good to go.
