My Chicken Plucker

My home made, self-designed chicken plucker. I modeled it after table top pluckers. Motor is a bench grinders. Pulleys are off an old water pump. the cylinder is PVC pipe. the whole thing dismantles in 10 minutes. The main plucking cylinder is replaceable. Originally we didn't have plucking fingers, so we used the ends of black rubber bungee cords. The fingers finally arrived and I mounted them to a new cylinder so both are available to use.

wow this is the coolest sexual torture device ive seen

[sherpawheeler]

@vanhalenman60 Like the old joke: What's the difference between kinky and perverted? Kinky is using a feather. Perverted is using the whole chicken.

@littlegorb: yeah, we just cut the throat. with 3 cones we can a couple waiting in line. we usually have 3 people on task, killing, cleaning, and final clean and bag. whatever makes the process quicker is the best idea.

Do you think you could use a bicycle wheel (without the tire) as the large pulley wheel?

[sherpawheeler]

@sgejji like from a kids bike? that is a damn good idea. remove the bearings (from the wheel) and just clamp it down on the shaft. awesome.

just do a little math and get the rotation about the same. i forget what mine is, 600 rpm or something under load. you don't want it too fast, but not too slow either.

@lLetTheGoodTimesRoll

That's OK. The chickens were vegan, and look at what happened to them. I'd rather not take the chance.  But thanks for the suggestion.

Mysery not mystery!

[Hamish121212]

I am a vegetarian and I see nothing wrong with this. I would rather see this than a caged tortured and beak clipped chicken that lives in mystery.

[noremorselethal]

what motor did you use to make this?
