Has anyone made their own feather grinders? If so do you have any pics?

I use a straight fletching clamp to hold the feather, and a common bench grinder.

Same here, a cheap straight fletch or two metal pieces held by a clamp.

The 'Barred for life' is the one I built and it works good.

as others have mentioned, i just use a straight fletching clamp and a table sander ... too easy.

Thanks with everyones info I may have a plan on how to do it.

Belt sander and a feather clamp. I don't even bother to split the feather before grinding.
