Default arrow building

Hello
I am going to start fletching my own arrows and want to make sure when I place the order I don't forget anything.
Please let me know if I left anything off the list.
Jig
2 colors of fletching
adhesive
shaft cleaner
That is all I came up with. Did I leave anything off?
thanks
Mike

-Sandpaper
-A fletching stripper for when you need to remove damaged vanes.


All I can think of at the moment. I am a bit tired today.

On a related note, I don't know if you are still shooting down at the shop but I picked up some new targets for the lanes. They should be in by the end of the week.

In all honesty I have not been shooting as much as a should/could be.
If the shop is getting new bags I will be back down.
Thanks for the advice on what else is needed.
