Feather stripping.

<< < (5/5)

Pappy:
Ya, don't see why not,I have used the feather jig with an isolating sander several times and it works
great.All the wheel at the bottom dose is bottom out so you don't have to watch so close,you just run it in till it bottoms and you are there.It really turns out consisdent  feathers.  :)

I split thm right down the low spot in the middle of the quill, even before I got this I used a fletching jig [old one] and a belt sander or rough piece of sand paper on a board. It worked fine. :)

thats how i split mine.  then i trim with scissors and then a razor blade.  do you do any trimming after splitting?  100 grit sandpaper?

Pappy:
Not usually,I may do a little after I sand them down thin as I want,if they are to wide at the base,much easier to trim when they are thin,when they are thick it kind of like trimming a toe
nail,easy to screw up and take to much where you don't want to. ;) ;D
