I use the lower portion of the wing, just clip it at the last joint where the wings spread out then remove that flap of skin so your just left with the portion of the wing that has the primary feathers. You should only have a little bit of flesh to deal with, trim any excess you can and borax it and let it sit and sit and sit and sit. I let them dry for several months if I can, just keep them on a piece of cardboard with the fleshy end covered in borax. Never use salt, it will only cure it and not dry it like borax. The wings I use are hen wings from a fall bird, i like the hen wing because it has much different sound than a gobbler wing. If you flap both together you notice the difference, plus the hen wing is more compact.
