Russ:
Hmm, trying to think what to do  :-\ . I want to send some to a tanner but i dont really have the (spending) money. Ill probably send 1 and see how it turns out. then ill decide.

Hawkdancer:

It probably is cheaper to buy a already air dried streched hide and send it out to get tanned than to get all the stuff you need to catch, skin, scrape, stretch,tan and break a beaver hide. But what's the fun in that? Still not trying to talk you out of it. Just pretty much whatever you do will cost something. After the initial investment it helps to do more numbers of animals but you will still have additional cost.

I would estimate I've spent about $160 in the past three years on tanning stuff. I do have some product left and I'm hoping not to have to purchase any this year.

Yep, education aint cheap, and sometimes the learning curve can be kinda long, but it is good. ;D Bob

I had Moyle tan some furs last season for me. I was very happy with the quality of their work.
Take care,
