Squirrelhunter91 Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 I'm looking to buy a new jig and even though I know the Bitz is the better option, I don't like having to buy clamps separate for $30 a pop. Does anyone know if the Bohning jig can do the 2 1/4" Fusion vanes as well? If not I'll switch back to Blazers, no biggie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing it can do anything that can fit in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhunter91 Posted June 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 I know the Bitz can do any vane. I'm trying to figure out if the Bohning will do the Fusions. It says its designed for 2" style vanes, but the Fusions are 2 1/4". I can imagine that the 1/4" could cause adhesion problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Joe, I would put an ad in AT for used bitz clamps. I bet you would find some cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the Bohning Blazer Helix Jig. I do not know if the 2 1/4" vanes will fit this jig because it was designed for Blazers. I would tend to think that they wont fit.

Squirrelhunter91 Posted June 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 FYI.. bought the Helix jig. Works with the Fusions! Awesome product! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 You will end up with a bitz down the road. If you ever get your hands on one and see how well they are made and all different fletching options you will spend the money. The bitz with straight clamp is the best option.
