HOW do y'all do it????
« on: December 06, 2014, 12:43:00 PM »
I want to make some Very Cool looking Keychains, that I will "Garnish" My Special Gifts with, using Straight Fletched Feathers.   HOW   do y'all get a RW or LW Feather to Straighten out??   :notworthy:

If you can get some, use tail feathers, they are already straight.

Shakes did you try a straight clamp and fetching jig? Or just the straight clamp if you are putting the feathers on something else?

I used the Bitz straight Clamp and adjusted it as close to Straight as I could, and keep the feather on the shaft.   :banghead:   Found out it was easier to Eyeball it!   :goldtooth:   That way each one is just a tad different. Makes Specialler (?) that way!!
     Merry Christmas to All!!   :archer2:
