Yea, neat item from the past. I just recieved the fixens for a doz. arrows from 3 rivers. Shafts-30.00, feathers-20.25, nocks-1.65,points-4.40, plus 9.75 for del, total-$66.05. Unless you buy the fixens by the hundreds,then a little cheaper.

Cody, Just curious what order you need to load up those arrows in order to get them all to fit? Looks like a tight fit when they are all in there. Super cool fletching station. Enjoy!
