DIY feather burner?
osage outlaw:
I don't how he used that burner. He hasn't been active for years. I agree with you. It looks like it would be a feather remover. If I was going to make another burner I'd make one just like the one of mine I posted but with the soldering gun as the power source. Please post some pictures of whatever you make.
Pat B:
You could do a set up like Clint's and use the soldering gun as the power source. Just connect with wire.
I also could not figure that last one either.

Here is what I made. It didn't take very long to throw together. It was simple and easy to make. Made the whole thing out of scrap minus the 3 dollar guitar string.
I tried the train transformer but I didn't have any luck. So I used an older style battery charger. I don't think the new ones will work because of a safety they have in them.
It takes a few minutes to get set up, but once you do, you can do a dozen arrows in no time. As long as you make sure your cutting wire is red hot. First set of kids arrows!
A buddy and I have been using this for about 3 years. I bought 2 pack of guitar strings and have only used one!

I successfully made one several months ago, very similar to Patrick's. I used a 6v battery charger like Clint suggested. For the burn wire I am using .045" stainless steel Mig welding wire, haven't had one burn up or lose its shape yet.
osage outlaw:
Nice job Patrick. I liked my home made burner better than the Young burner I traded for.
