You can make one using a soldering gun but I don't have plans.

I have been looking into the same thing.  One design I saw uses an old model train transformer and thin wire.  Another one uses a battery charger and thicker ribbon.  Google "making a feather burner" and see what you get.

Or, check this out.  I might have to try this one.  Looks pretty simple.

Check the link, this is one i made and it works just fine. Ribbons you can get at 3rivers archery, just put 12v on them to get it hot (car battery, transformer) And DO NOT USE INDOORS

the easiest is to get a used iron and plug it in, put it on hottest, or linnen and you have a feather burner

thanks for the links im going to use a car battery charger. im wondering if a trickle charger will even work... im sure it will... but duh i can't believe that i didnt think about D/C, of course A/C won't work. looks like that s tomorrows project!
