fletching without a jig

[dragonman]

Hi all.... I'm new to primitive fletching techniques, I've used a basic jig for years now. But its time for me to learn the original method, could anyone help out,  by providing some good video links etc....I'd be much obliged....thanks for your time if you can...

i know you asked about not using a jig,
but i could imagine that our nna brothers and sisters figured this one out using heavy leather
many many generations past.
