Deer rawhide process
Aaron H:
Very cool Ed. Are those furniture tacks on the top of your scraper? What is that used for?
BowEd:
Mostly decoration Aaron.The cone shaped ones on top of scraper have been used for a meat tenderizer though.
A little info many don't realize......When making scrapers from elk antlers using the 2nd tine up from the rosette is the best.It's a 90 degree perfect angle.Here's pics of 2 made from 2nd tine on the left for fleshing and dehairing.The 3rd or farthest to the right is made from the 1st tine up from rosette and my fine tune ultra sharp scraper for work on very thin rawhide hair and epidermis removal.I also scrimshawed my name on the rosette of that one.
Aaron H:
I thought that might be the case Ed, but didn't know if they were functional. I don't see any photos
BowEd:
I can see the pics from here.
Aaron H:
Oh, nevermind. There they are. Very nice
