you still wanna see the plucker ?
I showed you last year.but will go take photos again NOW.

Thanks for posting the pics. Could you induce your hubby into giving a list of materials and how to put that thing together? That would be a nice weekend project during a rainout weekend. Please?

What happened to you all?

Less than 60 posts in 24 hours!!! Are you all sick or just having a Monday?

I LOVE the cheap plucker!!!!

I want directions and measurements for box, PVC and how many plucker/finger thingys are on there, oh and how to make the drill attachment. Any cautionary remarks about using that piece of equipment?

Yes, if the bird gets stuck in the plucker, then the drill will go flipping around.
Gotta put the bird just in on the fingers, not shove it all the way in..LOL
DH adds a bundgie cord to hold it in place but still has a bit of give.
He did a velcro strap to hold the trigger down, and a large trash bag attaches to the back for feathers which blow out the back due to the wind the fingers make.
Works great.
Once we get a rythum going, we can dispatch & process about 1 bird every 5-8 minutes.

Yea I'm the only night crew here at....uh 1:54am !! Cause GUESS WHO's SNORING!!!

just took some melatonin so maybe I can start snoring too!!!

That stuff the doc gave me does help me sleep a little.but it makes me so swimmy headed all morning...............I hate this feeling, it is like waking up drunk...........

Almost to the point of nausea..............

Ha!!! I fixed it!! Seems I WAS too long winded on my signature and so that's why it wouldn't show up!!

Oh CL got the tape and it taped fine!! Maybe it's your machine?? The movie is old and hasn't been restored that is part of the problem!
I will watch How the West was Won tomorrow, oh well later today and let you know how that one came out too!!
Thank you soooooo much!!! You's the bestest!!

I have the How the West Was Won one, and it was so fuzzy we taped over it.
Glad to hear your tape was good.......the movie was nice & clear !!

FYI things are ok here. I am just crazy chasing my tail. Trying to get ready for this weekend sale and made the mistake of posting pics on FB. Well seems the items I was making for Saturday are selling as I finish and post em. Also have seen that a few people plan to pay the extra $5. to be an early bird and get in the gate at 8:00 rather than 9:00. They have said they are doing this to make sure they get some of the things I have posted. If ya thinked a is crazee now just ye wait I may be more worser by time this is over Sat night. Then I get to start building more stock for Stevenson and Canby and the tour of Wineries.

What's a girl to do in all the spare tyme.

Oh poor baby! No time to even get yer nails done or your hair done !!!
Just gonna have to herrier up more !

Maybe have to hire help ????????????
