After a wing-wire is set, wrap cotton, tow, or excelsior about the upper arm-bone to approximate shape and size of flesh removed. Wrap slightly with thread or cord and tie. In a small bird in which the forearm was skinned out from the inside, slip in a film of cotton or tow to replace flesh of same.
When head is set take excelsior body in right hand, hold it with head up, and with left hand pull shoulder skin into place. Now lay the bird down, take a wing-wire and start it through the body at side of back, one-half to one and one-half inches, according to size of bird, to rear of actual position of shoulder joint. Pull wire through on opposite side of breast.
Let long end of cord hang free so that it may be passed through the mouth when skull is set on neck-wire. With this done, lay aside the body. The next step is wiring the wings and legs and substituting muscles of same. To place a wing-wire draw the wing inside out. Take wing bone in left hand.
