I guess this can be answered by yall using Ferrets stripped turkey feather fletching.  

Must you grind the feather to use a fletching jig or can you use Ferrets stripped feather in a jig?

I use my bitz jig after stripping.  There's nothing left to grind after stripping the feather, at least the way I do it.  I learned from Mickey at Mojam a few years ago.
Only when the last tree has died
and the last river been poisoned
and the last fish been caught

I use my Jo Jan multi fletcher with the stripped feathers and have used both glue and fletch tape although the last few years i have just been using the fletch tape (cleaner and faster). I sinew wrap the leading edge when done.
There is always someone that knows more than you, and someone that knows less than you, so you can always learn and you can always teach
