Ian,
Check out Dr. Ashby's "fletching and extreme foc" threads. More info there than you can shake a stick at......

IMO, low profile 'naners are killers for 4-fletch!     :thumbsup:  

While awaiting the arrival of the Vario 4" Hunter (a low profile banana) I tweaked a Li'l Chopper (5" x 3/4") low profile banana chopper to cut 4" x 7/16" feathers for my 4-fletch.
