Just go buy them!

Seriously, I currently buy mine from "bowhunterssupplystore"

Why?
Here's Why

Go to the craft store and buy some dyed turkey feathers.
Use you knife to split them down the rachis.
Pinch the split feather between two paint stirrers and grind flat with a dremel sander.
Trim feather to length.
Suffer terrible allergies from all the feather dust while enduring the smell of burning feathers while sanding.
Cost $0.28 each

Order premade fletching online
Cost $0.32

Just buy pre-cut fletching
