deny essex Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Dont see why not , but I think you might need something on the ends of the wing arms to hold them tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 You may need to put a pigeon on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wilksy Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Cheers gents! Hahaha! Good point! And yeah deny maybe lash the wings on with a bit of wire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davyo Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Cheers gents! Hahaha! Good point! And yeah deny maybe lash the wings on with a bit of wire Get some crocodile clips of the bay and clamp them on the ends and just spread the wings and clamp to the primary feathers.

dead eye alan Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Yea that will do the job, so much more satisfaction when you make your own! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 On a practical note, the arms are long and may extend beyond the wing joint into where the primary feathers are. There will be no 'fixing' point there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wilksy Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Like the clamps idea davyo,the wire quite supple so I'll bend round but good point jdog cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Wilksy Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Beefed it up with more wire worked well with a pigeon in, in 20mph winds! Twisted the wire round the primary feathers and that kept the wings out well, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
