Does anyone using a Bitz jig know how to get an offset fletch using a straight clamp?

Chris Surtees

There are some screws on the side of the jig for  adjustments. You just loosen them and play with it until you are happy. I do not think you will get much more than 4 degrees of offset.

Mike, I think it's the magnet frame that can be adjusted ("offset") so that the clamp will skew a few degrees left or right.  Been decades since I messed with a Bitz ... hopefully someone's got a Bitz info paper with the right scoop.

The magnet frame adjusts for offset and for different size shafts, the little set screws adjust the nock position.

Offset is adjusted by the two silver hex head screws (on the larger knobs) on the jig (not the indexer).  There is an index line for "zero", make sure you move them opposite of each other if you are turning both, otherwise all you are doing is rolling them on the shaft.

I noticed you labeled your post 4-fletch.  Without a proper indexer, you need to set two, pull the arrow, rotate it 180 and set the next two.  You may already know this.
