I've only ever clipped myself - but I don't clip very much off the primaries (about 3cm - or more if the bird can climb significantly) and I let them grow out in the winter... So I'm a "once in a blue moon" clipper as well...

Aside from blood feathers it is important (to me) that there is nothing nearby that can jab the bird if she goes into a panic for some reason... Flat table, towels and blunted scissors...
