Default Hackle gauge

Stan made me giggle when he said:

FWIW, I size my hackles on a gauge. When I'm pulling them off the skin (I
only do as many as I'm using), if I get any that are bigger or smaller than
I want, I put them in a labelled baggie that I keep in the bag with the neck
for future use. When I want to tie some size 14s and I find 4 already sized
hackles, I feel like somebody gave me a present...
