I’ve mad a couple jigs out of wood and cut the hulls with a band saw . The first jig has holes for 10 , 12 , 16 and 20 . The second one I made has a slot to keep the saw from throwing the cutoff piece and also make it a bit straighter it’s 10 gauge only . Granted one of those Rube Goldberg looking deals some folks put together with an Exacto knife most likely cut cleaner , but my jigs speed up the process and I’ve never missed a bird because of a slightly frayed end .
