Just made a plucker

[daneblackburn]

Plucked 3 birds quicker then my buddy could scauld them. What a awsome machine. What a nice machine.

Congrats! It sure is great to have an efficient machine. Well done!
We ended up buying Whizbang parts last year & hubby put it together. Works great too.
I admire folks who are real handy though!

This is very nice. First time I have seen the combo of the drill based plucker with a place to catch feathers.

 

[daneblackburn]

Thank you very much. It catches all the feathers. I have made a table for gutting so they can slide in too. I have had to pluck a few of wing feathers by hand, but i will figure out how to handle the bird to get them off.The drum with rubber comes off in just a few moments for cleanup. As soon as I can I am going to get a video for everyone to see. I have less then 10 bucks in it; minus the drill.

I have a drill plucker. I'm definitely going to shamelessly copy your wonderful idea.

 

[daneblackburn]

Have at it. My rubber are used inflations from a milking parlor. Dairymen give them away. I cut slots with a circular saw about 10 gallon up so water would drain, but contain the feathers. Good luck send me a pick.

I have a video of my plucker and want to put on here, but I am not smart enough. Can I get some help, or can I send to someone that knows how?

Try uploading the video to YouTube and just posting the link here.

Yes post this video. We are looking at ideas for our own now. It must be able to do turkeys too though.
