This is to hold it instead of using glue. To wind the gold wire, make a shallow hole with a pin and poked the wire in. I also stuck them on a bit far from the end, so I cut the end a bit shorter. Because i'm impatient, I used super glue to stick the feathers to the shaft. I trimmed them using hair dressing scissors because they seemed to be the only scissors I had that could cut the feather. Then cut the feather around the template using a craft knife. I cut the template from thick paper and placed that over the feather, positioning it so that I could cut all my arrow feathers from the one feather. I trimmed the shaft a bit because it was quite thick in some areas. Cut the feather in half by cutting down the centre of the shaft with a craft knife. This feather I had was 30cm long and nice and wide.
