Default fletching blazer vanes

I need to know if any type of special jig is required to fletch blazer vanes with a right helical. I want to be able to fletch my own arrows because having to go to the pro shop to have them refletched is getting expensive. I keep shoot through or off my fletchings. Will a normal jig that comes with any fletcher work even though the vanes are only 2.5" long?
Also, what fletcher would everyone suggest I buy? I need it to be able to do 4 vanes at 90 deg. Last question, what is the best adhesive to use to attach the fletchings?

Thanks

A standard fletching jig with a right helical clamp will work fine. You wont get a very large degree of helical, but it doesnt take much at all. I just fletched up3 dozen arrows with blazers and found that they adhere much better than a standard vane using plain fletch tite.

I use Arizona EZ Fletch with AAE Speedset. I feltched one arrow with 3 Blazers on xx78 2117's. All I did was take a paper towel, wet it with rubbing alcohol and wipe the shaft off and let dry. My Blazers are on there good.
