That’s the best fletching advise you’ll ever get.

Yup
 
As everyone has said Bitzenburger is the way to go. I am pretty sure JimBows Edmonton has a couple left.

Depending on your budget, you might consider the LCA Vane Master Pro over the Bitzenburger. It allows for adjusting between right or left helical from 1 degree to 5 degrees without purchasing additional clamps. You can re-fletch a single vane with near absolute precision vs turning nocks on the Bitz to try to align (which is nice if you fletch relative to the spine of arrow).

Honestly, I doubt you'll notice any difference in how your arrows fly, but if you like to tinker, experiment, and subscribe the to "buy once, cry once" mentality, I think the LCA fletching system is overall more flexible and precise than the Bitzenburger. That being said, the Bitzenburger is the most popular jig for good reason and will definitely get the job done.
