We hand make them here in the Bowyer`s workshop, we try to keep them in stock, but they take a while to make, so please be patient, heere is a link to the item on our shop...

Call us on Monday to reserve one. And a MASSIVE thanks for the support, it really helps, very kind of you.
Oh wow, that big jig would be perfect for Manchu arrows (I'd guess that's probably what your customer is after it for)
Yes, indeed
Thank you for this channel. It keeps me motivated to keep making bows.
Brilliant, best comment this year, you have made my day!
Your welcome
The bigger jigger would work great for atlatl darts
Yes indeed
@@longbows Or Manchu arrow fletching. They tend to be loooong.
Sure would’ve aided Apollo on his fated mission..😂👌🏻

Darn i missed it lol 😂 I had the alarm set and everything
never mind, are you watching it now?
I sure am!
Twelve Inch Fletching?
Great show RHL.
Thanks
The 12" jig is for Atlatl darts.
Can you specify the Dimensions length breath etc
Hi .great video.very large fletchings.are they used in medieval arrows.or what are the benefits of a larger one ?great by the way 👍👍👍
you two should go professional as a comedy double act. Happy New Year
Very kind
When fletching with no jig, or generally, should flethcing be straigth along, or scewed a little to cause the rotation of the arrow, or does using only left/right fethers do that along?
I see my question got answered in the video ^^
Just orderd one cause who doesnt love a big feather ! Like 5 inch max is just sad
Hi, great, glad to hear it, I will be sending you an email as you haven't provided all your details on the order.
@@longbows mmh filled in what the page wanted but if you need more i will keep a eye out for the email!
you missed your phone number, I have sent an email, give me am email back when you see it.
Hellical clamp?
Essentially is straight, but each one is hand made so can vary slightly, its not adjustable.
What size arrow does it fit, is it 3/8?
It's designed with that diameter and up, so medieval style in general.
@@longbows alright thank you so much I just ordered one!!!!
How much would one of the bigger jiggers cost?
Drop us an email if interested in prices headbow@hotmail.com
So, seriously, do you know why one would want 12" feathers? Feudal Japanese presentation arrows? I some of these in a feudal Japan exhibit
Its for Atlatl darts. Light fletched javelins thrown with a launcher that acts as an extension of your arm, known as an Atlatl or a woomera.
