ABSTRACT:
A machine for plucking feathers from game birds, such as ducks, may be made in a home workshop from readily available components. A housing is assembled from pieces of plywood and has a base, sides and a top. A square block is drilled from a shaft which is welded to plates on the ends of the block. Plucking fingers are lengths of hose formed with a series of notches near their ends. The fingers are received in holes in the sides of the block and retained by screws inserted through the block intersecting the fingers. The shaft is journalled in pillow blocks fastened to the base and is turned by a pulley drive from a motor mounted on the rear of the base.
