I read [here in] a while back that JoJan fletching jigs weren't being made anymore... Happened on the JoJan website the other day and it looks to have been updated/copyrighted as recently as 2022... So are they back in production? Can't find anywhere [in a really short search] where they can be purchased; have sent an email through the site's support page; have the number and will call soon [letting the recovery of thee= holidays set in]... Anyone know the scoop?

There is the Avalon Hexagon 6 arrow Multi Fletching Jig. All metal construction. However, it has only straight clamps. It can do 3 degrees of offset.

Jo-Jan was last advertised in Lancaster catalog 2018-2019. Gone with the 2019-2020 catalog.

It's been earlier this year that I saw the Jo-Jan updated to 2020. Heard were they going to re-open, but so far nothing.......

I've got 3 Multi Jo-Jans (2 with helical clamps and 1 with straight clamps) and I also have a Mono Jo-Jan (stand alone with both straight and helical clamp).

I have both the mono and multi JoJans, one rt helical and six straight clamps, always wanted a full set of helical clamps [which may mean buying another multi as according to the website, a full multi set up would be cheaper than buying six clamps alone....

I've only tried a couple different jigs, but so far the JoJan has been the easiest to fletch with blindfolded; there might be others out there I could make work, but I'm not game on the "buy and try," especially with how much I loathe fletching in the first place...

I forget which, EBay or Amazon had Jo-Jan clamps. I think a set ran around $65.00.

The last the Multi Jo-Jan sold for was $99.99. Why can't they say $100? And individual clamps listed for $16.99. If just 5 then $84.95.

I can't find him, but someone in here had a bunch of Jo-Jans for sale. 10 I think.

I've been lucky. I bought out the archery shop and bought 2 Multi Jo-Jans for $100 (1 older and 1 newer). Couple years ago I bought a like new Multi Jo-Jan for $50.00.

I like mine as well........I usually just use 3 clamps with mine. I got 3 straight, 3 left and 3 right and by the time I set all 3 up I walk away for 15min it's time to rotate them again. If I use fastset I can keep rolling and never get up..........lol

I was a tight wad in the military when I got mine and I just never got more clamps. I hate they went under.

Friend of sorts gets loads of stuff for free or cost - He puts on hunting seminars, turkey, deer, and tracking. He decided to clean out his stash and I latched onto another like new Multi Jo-Jan for $50. Straight clamps.
So now I have 2 Multi Jo-Jans with helical clamps and 2 Multi Jo-Jans with straight clamps. Total 4 plus a Mono.
