I’ve had the itch to make some turkey feather fletchings ever since I killed my first Turkey a few years back. I was talking to a saddlehunter who is a bad influence and he got me interested again. Unfortunately the feathers disappeared in the move, but I think I know where to get some more. This seems like the most straight forward tutorial. What if anything do you do different?
Once you get them processed down to the size you want How are you shaping your fletchings? The wire burner is nice but I’m not looking to spend the money right now. I’m thinking cutting jig/templet or maybe a little chopper? What template work well? Maybe I could 3d print templates since I have a circular cutter and cutting board already. What has been your experience?
@BTaylor @JSEXTON23 I thought i remembered y’all make your own? @Allegheny Tom have you fooled with Turkey feathers at all?
