Wellll... Maybe just bout four Turkeys!! My buddies save me wings from their hunts, I think I was up to four. So I cut the feathers off, boxed them up, and sent them to a feller for processing. He turns them into fletching and sends back the wing and style you want. His charge is that he keeps the opposite side for the work. So the feathers were free, the work was free, and I have over 100 fletching's for the cost of shipping. He paid the return shipping.

Just recently heard of him, he frequents the LW site, several there recommended him. So I sent him a PM and ask about it, he was (or appeared) glad to make the trade.
If he has a business I am not aware of it.
