Abstract
An aerodynamic element (often referred to as a vane or fletching) that is operatively coupled to the nock end (the back) of an arrow or similar projectile at an angle to the axis of the projectile is known to stabilize flight. This angle, known as offset or helical, in combination with the airflow generates both low and high pressures on different sides of the vane. This pressure difference imparts a torque around the projectiles primary axis which is one component to stabilizing the arrow's flight. Knowing the exact angle of this offset or helical of the vane to the axis of the arrow is critical to create an arrow with optimal performance. The illustrative tool allows the user to very accurately and precisely adjust a fletching jig to exactly the desired angle, as well as being able to setup multiple jigs with exactly the same setup.
