- Thank you @SouthernEngineering for pioneering this design!
Full build video with all steps and part list: • How to Make the Ultima...
Here is an overview of the design. I will have a longer video coming in a week or two that has more detail on the build process as well as a complete part list down to the last nut, bolt, and pop rivet.
Features:
- single on/off switch operates rinse ring & motor
- two hose accessory hookups
- quick connect hose fittings
- 10’ hose with spray nozzle
- large wheels for easy mobility
- 30’ power cord
- 1 hp farm duty 1800 rpm motor
- all metal construction
- super durable polyethylene barrel
- thick aluminum feather plate
- fully painted chassis and manifold
- tensioned metal frame tube secures barrel with authority
- stainless steel fasteners and aluminum pop rivets
- best ergonomics of any plucker I’ve used/studied
- very easy to clean
After looking at commercially available units, and having used one last year, it became clear that there is room to build a better plucker. The features, mobility, and lightning fast set up as well as super short clean up time is what sets this apart from other designs. So far it worked brilliantly on pheasant. This year I will try it on quail, duck, chicken, goose, and turkey. Cheers!

This Plucker is better than any $1500+ unit on the market, by far.
Great Job 👏🏽
Thank you for the list of items and NOT spending 10 minutes talking at the beginning of the video and sharing random thoughts about nothing.
Also, thanks for NOT blasting loud music while filming!
This was a Great quality video, too.
I've been watching a bunch of DIY chicken pluckers and I must say that this is the best one.
Outstanding work; there is no greater compliment. Thanks for sharing. P.s. I have not disappeared, but I have been very ill; the doc says I can get back to work as much as I can tolerate. Once again, you have done an excellent job; you should be very proud.
Thanks! Glad to here you are still around. This design is proving it’s worth - 6 times this year with duck, goose, pheasant, chicken, and turkey. You nailed the design - grateful to have such a great starting point for my build! 🙏
@@samuelwiltzius Nice work. Have a question about number of fingers you used. Southern Engineering used 152 but you seem to follow the Whizbang plans on that one and they used 125. Did you have any problems with the fingers NOT doing a good job? S.E. says he used 3/16 plate but the .125 says he used 1/8. What did you use?
@@Bobcagon thanks! I had great luck with chicken and pheasant with the wiz bang finger layout… but geese and turkey took longer (50-75% more spin) so I added more fingers after looking at commercial plucker finger layout and also increased the speed to 315 rpm - I feel this has optimized the plucker and there are no more gains to be had. The feather plate is from chickenpluckerparts.com and is .190" 5052-H32 Aluminum
Where can I get a PDF? And how much would it be?
@@robertgraveline6108 Sorry, but I never made a PDF. The videos are the instruction.
Dude.. good job! And I really appreciate (not many care) the fact that you cut the neck on the bird neatly, instead of just chopping his head off. Not many people do that
Thanks! My wife is the poultry researcher while I am infrastructure… she is very concerned with humane treatment and also explained to me the importance of keeping the spinal cord in tact for feather release. So far it seems she is spot on and things have gone well.
@@samuelwiltzius هذه الطريقة في الذبح يستخمها المسلمون, مضاف عليها ذكر اسم الله
hey bro,i agree the neck is neatly, same method as halal process..
Why does it matter?
@@michaelwescott8064It is so much more humane as the spinal cord still attached, it allows the body to send a message to the brain the O2 level is low, so the brain starts sending a message to the body to move quickly as an Alert which allows almost all of the blood to exit which means there is no bacteria (which could be found in coagulated blood) present. And by that quick movement and faster blood pressure, the brain enters unconsciousness faster than when the spinal cord is still attached and by that time the bird just d!es much quicker!
That's not diy, it has met the factory quality.
could you please name the book that you took as reference at 4:13? @samuel
Search for Whizbang Plucker and you’ll find it
Aqui é Roberto Vieira, Bahia, Brasil gostei muito, nota 10.
Wait, the bird has to be dead prior to putting them ?
Yup... dead and scalded prior to plucking.
It is a clever and good idea ,imagine you sell it how match it cost /message from morroco
I really like this design. I just watched Southern Engineering before finding you. Can you provide dimensions of the critical components please? The rotating plate diameter and hole pattern, the barrel hole pattern, rotating shaft dimensions. Thank you.
Thanks, I made a longer video with all the descriptions of all the parts and a more in depth build process here ua-cam.com/video/gyrp2FjVwgY/v-deo.html
i need the book where can i find it
Good evening, my name is Ghyslain and I admit that your way of working impresses me.
I would like to learn how to make this machine.
I live in Ivory Coast.
Do you give lessons?
Excellent job and presentation! Now all you gotta do is start selling them! LOL Well done!
World class! Very nice job!
Parabéns belíssimo depenador só achei que a rotação ficou muita
A great invent of you. You must do chicken plucker in series man. You would become rich!
I apologize if it is posted somewhere but I haven't seen it. Do you happen to have a parts list for this build? I'm hoping to make one myself this year.
link to a longer video in the description - end of that video has a parts list.
How much do sell it , can you make a quote, wishing to start ordering from you.
Puedes fabricar para vender 1 y enviarla a Bogotá Colombia?
Wow, that is impressive ! I would buy one. 👍👍💚🐔🐔🐔
How much to build it and ship it to me lol. I don’t have the patience or technical skills to read a big ass book and follow it.
buen trabajo hermano,Dios Bendiga a tu familia.
💁💁💁💁👆👆👆👆🤔🤔🤔🤔CHEAR ESTE SUPER 100% !!☺️☺️☺️☺️🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
Excelente felicidades, cuanto vale una una peladora de pollos como esa
Very very good, better than china factory quality
Bangladesh Cox's bazar pekua rajakali 😮
GOOD 👍👍👍
Very very very nice good job
Fantastic job. I’ve watched the SE video when he designed it. You made that look much easier than it really is! Would you entertain making another and selling it?
undecided... The cost ran close to $900 for parts alone. This was fine more us since I provided the labor, enjoy making stuff, and we really wanted extra features and portability not found elsewhere. Unfortunately, I think my labor costs would make the price a bit too much. Thanks for asking though!
@@samuelwiltzius I’m sure. I’d rather pay that plus your time and a mark up for profit for something this well built that buy two $500 commercial made junk pluckers online. Good ones are hard to fine so I understand it’s gotta be worth it for you. Let me know what that is and let me know! I’m interested!
@@andrewjenkins6996 The unsatisfying answer is I simply don't have time and I have not streamlined the processes or mastered the skills enough to produce a product that is worthy of the price I'd have to charge in order to pay myself fairly for the time invested in making it.

How much and how many haeds capacity
Bonjour mon ami 👍 merci beaucoup pour le partage de cette belle vidéo intéressante, merci pour l'explication 💐 je suis très content de vous 👍 et je suis nouveau abonnés sur votre chaîne, salutations d'amitié 🙏🙋☕🍫🐓🤝🖐️
the amount of time you put into that was impressive.
Samuel, cuánto me fábrica una peladora de POLLOS estoy interesado en una ,vivo en BUGA VALLE COLOMBIA GRACIAS
u can make them and sell them
Mantap,
Anda orang kreatip dan jenius
Can you make automatic cutting machine
I will buy one from you and the scalder if you want to make one for me and I will pay for shipping...because I do a lot of goose and duck hunting. I'm dead serious i will pay for your time also.
Great job please kindly provide me with you website address for further details information about this great opportunity offered to help me get my backyard function
First off, Kudo’s for giving Southern Engineering his credit. He did a great job but he’s kind if disappeared.
You really stepped it up and I can’t wait to get your parts list and see your more detailed video. Most Excellent Job!
Two challenges for you: One, we need a scalder and two, I want to build a honey extractor which could likely be built similar to this plucker. Thanks!
Not sure on the honey extractor - I have bees (build my own frames and boxes) my extractor is second hand and all stainless steel - probably better to buy that and DIY add a motor. The plucker I built was expensive (see end of long video I posted) but scalder was cheap. I briefly talk about the scalder in a video showing how my wife and I process birds, I’ll find a link for that.
A scalder is just a barrel/pot of some type, 2000W hot water element, 10 gauge extension cord, water heater lower thermostat (residential goes to 150, commercial hotter but more money) and 1" FPT Bulkhead Water Tank Connector Stainless Steel Thru-bulk Fitting (Amazon.com name). A hole saw and a few pop rivets and it’s built.

Correction: lower thermostat for water heater (only has two leads)
@@samuelwiltzius Thanks! Did you just mig weld the galvanized conduit?
@@scottsnodgrass4361 Yes… It was tricky at first and the welds won’t win any beauty contests - I’m not at all an authority on welding. I did try to remove the galvanize and weld in a well ventilate area at least.
Шикарная перосъемка! Похоже, у парня титановые руки (не люблю золото)))
Стоит посмотреть и другие его самоделки...
One of the best I've seen. Great job.
Can you check the price of Plücker in market and you have made now ?But you did it perfect
Itu boleh buat skripsi bisa
Great job Mr Wiltzius🤝
ما هذا يا رجل إنه عمل رائع ❤❤❤
Necesito una cuánto ?$$$$$$

Вот она Синяя птица....
😅точняк
How can I built this one I have screw driver tools only.
Magnífico
is this water cold?
Was chicken dipped in scalding water first?
It was scalded first.
Good job nice Shering Sir ❤💐👍👍👍👍
I’m actually impressive. That’s was fast.
watchine from Hong Kong, Nice one.
Wow very nice work.Done with you Idols with full support
you ve strong technical knowledge and good tools . its realy good
Very well done! Enjoyed the video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
you are a genius🎉🎉🎉😮
Q hermosura de creación
Great build!
Bro please price share
have you tried it for a turkey? Thanks
Yes, works very well. So far if scalded correctly and it fits in the drum it plucks.
سييير على الله وشكرا
Very nice idea sir .,thank u for sharing .,.,
Samuel Excellent work. Could you make me one to buy?
Excelente. Muchas gracias por compartir
Olá qual a rotaçao do seu motor e quantas rpm tem no disco de dedos . Obrigado
How much for one?
By the time it took to build that contraction
I could have plucked
by hand about 100 chickens Lol ...
(Just kiddin)
Thanks! what about the next 100? 🤔 😂
Excellent build!
A real masterpiece of engeneering & craftsmanship !
And all built in just 16 minutes ! ;-)
Motor de 3.5 ???
How much for one
Cool 👍👍 great job, my friend.
Hi
How much.
works well 🤠
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
This is a very nice machine, might have to upgrade my old drum plucker
That's great idea..Good job sir thank you for sharing godbless you always 🙏
e possibile aquistarla
Fantastic, I would watch a 1 hour vid on this with narration and instruction.
Note: Welding galvanized metal produces unusually toxic fumes.
Safety "Ken" here.🥸
I have a longer video (link in description) - and yeah... galvanized. I took precautions and stripped as much as possible before welding. Also the room I'm working in is power vented to the outside and I stayed upstream of the airflow. I would do more if I welded more than once or twice a year.
No hablo inglés pero la verdad te felicito por lo que insiste para pelar pollos me gustaría tener uno de esos soy de Argentina y vivo en Boston Massachussets el trabajo es excelente te mando saludos para toda la familia bendiciones
Lo felicito!!
Very impressive
I'm interested
Outstanding
Yeah i'd definitely buy one from ya!
How has it stood up to the test of time? Would you change anything?
It’s done very well. I can’t think of anything to change. Some have suggested a motor water deflector but that hasn’t been an issue so far.
Good to know. Considering building one of this concept. Thank you!
Where did. Your. Get. 1/2. Plexiglass. And. 3/16. Aluminum. 24x24
Those two parts were the hardest to source - in the video description I have a link to a longer video with the full parts list. The 1/2" sheet is 24" square and is from amazon; it is HDPE (high density polyethylene), the feather plate was sourced from chickenpluckerparts.com/shop and I highly highly recommend purchasing it here instead of trying to mill and drill one.
Amazing
This idea in used over 100 years, I saw this very old technology 35 years ago
Good ideas never grow old!
Brilliant! Great craftsmanship!
Bravo numero 1
worked perfect you could sell those !!
Good job ❤❤❤❤❤😢
Super jab sir
Wow I am very impressed sir!! How much money do you have in this?
Thanks! Enough money that my wife was also impressed… until I gave her the bill ($900-950, link to longer video in description gives the breakdown)
Bor price
Very Nice PRO Build!😁
Wow so beautiful plucker
You should sell these Domestic made Pluckers 680 - 1000 USD per piece depending upon the type of materials. Just saying. People say why things cannot be made in America.. here you go...
A thousand would just cover materials.
@@samuelwiltzius I need the price so you can sell me one, please
