Default Installing Vanes

Looking in to re-fletching my own arrows. I have a few questions:

1. What fletching tool do you use? Make? Moel?
2. What glue works the best?
3. What vanes do you recommend?


Any other tips for installing vanes?

Any info would be great.

I use a BPE PRO Series Fletcher.
It is made from plastic or high grade
polymere actually, but don't let that
bother you, it's still strong and I haven't
had a single issue with it. They make a
metal one but it's about 3X the price, and
doesn't work any better than this one.

Vanes and glue I use, 2.1" Fusion vanes
and Loctite 404 quick set instant adhesive,
comes in a yellow bottle.
Just be sure of your set-up before you place
the vane on the arrow as that glue is WICKED
sticky and once its on, IT'S ON!
