First time building my own arrows.

Easton axis trads w 75 grain brass inserts, 3 Rivers white wraps, TruFlight 5" shield feathers.

My only complaint is the Easton factory decal...

Here's my setup... I used the fletching tape and wasn't to crazy about it but wasn't sure what adhesive was the best... Suggestions??

They look real good, nice job.

Fletching tape works great,but there is a small learning curve with it, especially with handling it and easy ways to apply it.  When you are done,Just put a tiny little dot of glue on each end of the fletching to hold it down more securely. Doing this ive never had a problem with using tape.

Acetone takes off most logos.  I use tape,but I do not hunting extreme temperatures. Dot of glue on each end of quill. Best feature of tape for me is when you remove them to install new ones,the wraps are not damage.

Nice work on those. Next time you can remove that label with good off or lacquer  thinner. It will wipe off very sasily

Look good.  I can't tell, are you taking the Easton wrap off before you put your white wraps on?  

With Easton Axis shafts, I usually fletch them as they come from the factory.  Then, when I wear out the feathers, I remove the wrap along with the feathers and install a new cap wrap.

Sooo factory sticker bugged me... Lol striped em all and redid them! Also, added glue at end of tape.Much happier. Can y'all see all 3 pics? Trying to figure out this whole Imgur

Nice job Jesse.  The white on white is always a looker with barred fletching..
