You two sound like a pair of feather pluckers hahaย 

I thought that they were pheasant pluckers, but I was wrong.

I'm not a pheasant plucker,
But a pheasant plucker's son,
And I'll sit here plucking pheasants,
'Til the pheasant plucking's done.

Hi itโ€™s a while since I have seen a Whizbang. I made one years ago with a plastic drum and used an electric motor from my old cement mixer. I used an old copper boiler to scald the birds . The wet feathers would spin out from a small gap at the bottom of the barrel. I used it for wildfowl, one day I put a dozen Canada geese through it there was a thick circle of wet feathers around the barrel. Itโ€™s a messy machine, wellyโ€™s or waders would be required. With these types of machines itโ€™s getting the scalding right more so with the large Canada geese. I never put any teal in it, l think they would just spin out of the barrel. I would think that the birds would need scalding with the hand drill machine. I have never used the drill type machine.ย
