Coon Skin Quiver?????

--- Quote from: Pat B on December 10, 2010, 04:42:39 pm ---Check out the "How To" section for hair on quivers. I made a coyote quiver a few years ago from info I got from the How To section. I have done leather work for years but never with hair on hides. There are a few trade secrets that will make life easier for you there.
Check the "Trading Post" for coon pelt if you don't already have one. Chris(Mechslasher) can tell you where he got the amathists for the eyes too.

I coon hunt and my freezer is overflowing with coon fur. If anyone needs some, I'd be than happy to trade some. I'll do my homework before I get going on this project. Thanks for the advice I received. Its much appreciated.

Frank(Medicinewheel) built a boar hide quiver and posted a "how to" there also.

I just trapped my first racoon, and was thinking about a coon skin quiver myself. The raccoons down here are kind of small so I think I need to trap another about the same size. I plan to brain tan them. I case skinned the one and would plan on doing the same with a second one and then sinew stitch them together end to end and put the face masks up top and the tails on the bottom.
I'd be happy to get some advice or suggestions as well.
