Made a Turkey Fan Case tonight

[Hardcorehunter]

Fan slides in an out easily as it has a side and top entry.I had an old predator shirt that had a couple of holes in it, so I took a pizza box, and made a protective carrier for my Primos fan system that goes on my Dave Smith Strutter deke. Hot glue gun, 550 para cord, 2 cordlocks, pizza box, duct tape, and I like. :drink2:

Looks nice Hardcore. I may have to follow your design if you don't mind. Caring for the fan is always a pain.

Thanks!!! That's why I post ideas, to share!!

Is it very sturdy?
I figured I would crush something like that the first time out.

Yea, pretty solid, or I wouldnt have went to the work of hot glueing the camo and paracord on (-: It goes in my dsd strutter bag and that is netted on. I'm going to spray some silicone camp dry on the Predator cloth, so it will be pretty well water proof.

Have you guys ever tried a turkeytail saver? Go to there website and check them out. I have had one for 3 or 4 years and i love it!! Works for storing it year around.

I hate to tell you this HCH but you put your tail feathers in backward. The holder is going to fold up on you in the wind.

I noticed that either way I used it, it will fold up on me. If I flip it around, the sides cave in. If you flip it around too, you get a bare, can see all the way to the feather root look, which looks weird and like a diseased bird would look imo, I made mine like Cornfed killer on AT, as Primos crappy directions show nothing

I could make one of those. They are a good looking setup for a full fan.

Yep, this is just gravity pulling the sides in.
