hey guys im having a moment setting up my jig.
could some of you that use lw feathers post a few pics of your feathers up close on the arrow. so i can see how a proper hielical off set should look. my arrows are flying ok but just dont look right to me. but im new to this and might be right im lost here.

I think the pics on page 6 show what it should like like pretty good. You can adjust the in/out of the jig where your feather clamp attaches (usually the magnet part).  Make sure the clamp it perpendicular to the shaft in the front AND back.  As the clamp rotates around the shaft, that area should still be perpendicular to the shaft.  Then you fletch will be centered and sticking out at a 90 degree angle its entire length as it rotates down the shaft.

If it dont look right, take a razor blade, scrape it off and try again.  You will get the hang of it.
