Tea Bag Wings

Some examples of wings created by using glueing feathers onto tea bag wrapper paper.
I'm working on it Kevin - Hopefully I'll get it to ya soon. I know there's no rush but I hate to leave stuff on a list of things to do....
 

 

 
 
Should have added a third wing case on this one....

    Nice wings. Do you use the templates or just cut by hand? I know tiemco made some metal templates to burn with I believe. Does it take much longer or not really because you do the wings all at once?

    Yes and No HC. For dries - the wings are hand cut - I have yet to make a wing burner for these yet. For the caddis and the stone - they are from burners I made myself. There are wing cutters also that you can get and they are very nice to work with but they are $$$.
