I know some on here will sandpaper the area for the feather before gluing but I've never done that but I seem to use a glue that I haven't seen anyone else on here use.
Thanks for your time.

I just scrape the rind on mine and havent had too many difficulties.Duco cement seems to work on cane,but pitch works too.

I do it both ways. The rind will prevent good adhesion so either a light sanding in that area or seal the entire shaft(or just the fletching area) first.

I brake the glaze on cane shafts with 220 grit. I then mark the flech position with a pencil line. Next is contact cement down the pencil lines and on the flech vanes. In 10 minutes I assemble the arrow and tie the fleches fore and aft. I like contact cement but tape works also.

Superglue works well.

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.
