Re: [VFB] Whiting swap

Dean, I plucked four capes and most of the feathers were longer than the bags!  What I did was to staple the feathers to the card as Byard directed, then, I put the card and feathers in the bag feather tips first so the printed description was the last part to go in each bag.  The feather tips somewhat curled at the bottom but that is better than getting zipped in the zip-loc part.  Also, to me, it makes more sense this way because when a feather is to be used, the card can be slid out a little ways and the desired feather can be plucked from the card without going "against the grain" of the barbs. Hope this helps, Bruce Whittle ----- Original Message ----- From: Dean Larson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 2:18 PM Subject: Re: [VFB] Whiting swap Hi Rick or     HELP!!!!!!!!     What do you do when the feathers are longer than the package?     I've been pushing them down.
