+1 for the Nockng Point

I had a RW Vador fletching jig that I wanted a LW clamp for and ended up with one packaged by Martin.  It was not identical to the original the Martin had more helical), but it worked just fine after some angle adjustments with the knobs on the jig.  You might try asking Mike at the Nocking Point about aftermarket compatability, too.

BTW, I use 3-5" LW shield PINK feathers over a white wrap.  The arrows are pretty tough to lose.

I could not get pink feathers when I was in the UK, so I made my own. Get white feathers, get some pink food coloring and mix into a saucepan of boiling water. Wash the feathers in dish washing detergent. Add a cup of white vinegar to the saucepan so it comes off the boil. Add the feathers and stir them around until you have the shade you want. Pull them out and rinse under cold water and set out on a kitchen towel to dry. It's simple, cheap and fun to produce a feather no one else has. Do a few extra feather though just incase you ever have to refletch them.

Go to the **** store, Bullseye Feathers. He sells AMG shield cut feathers that are eye-popping hot pink! And his prices are very good as well.
