HA!! Well played sir! :)
aaron:
some hides finish nice and soft without brains, etc... I have done raccoon and nutria , hair on, without braining and they came out soft and lasted for years (never wet). I doubt it would work for a deer hide ( otherwise we'd all have been doing it that way for millenia). What type of hide was in the video?

Looks like you could smoke "square grouper"* in that pipe!
Now I am wondering just who in here will get that reference.
rover brewer:
how can you put square grouper in round pipe?
jkyarcher:
In this video the guy was "tanning" squirrel and badger. All he did was rinkle and stretch the fleshed dried out rawhide until soft then he smoke it over a fire.
Thanks for the responses I was just wondering if it really would work as good as he made it seem. He made it sound as though it was leather as if it were done by any other tanning process.
this is one of the videos http://youtu.be/sdAocIzADUg
