Wow - not sure how you are splicing those but it seems like a few more steps than I use.  I just cut then to the length I want and put them together.  Once they are on the shaft they look like they grew that way.  Can you give a few details on the splice technique?

Nice looking by the way

Cool!  Reminds me of a Pileated woodpecker(sort of).

thanks for the compliments,it is a membrane splice.it is a little more work than a butt splice but its a clean looking splice and i think its worth it.i saw on a thread about goose feather how ferretWYO was splicing and so i gave it a try,so thanks to him for sharing.im working on some of the other colors i have and i will put up some pics of them.
