Mike... I have too many feathers now, but until then this is what I did and it might help you:

1) Buy Metz saddles (about $15). These covered my needs in the 10-16 range, though as I recall the 10s and 16s were limited... but if are tying just for yourself they should be ample. Plus these are good for woolly buggers, especially the feathers in the back of the saddle (underneath the smaller feathers)

2) By Whiting 100-packs to fill in the voids. I only tie down to about 20 and rarely fish that size, so the 100 packs in just a few colors in 16, 18, 20 seem to be enough... grizz, brown, and med. dun are all I have in these, I think.
