Hog skins?

(1/3) > >>

JackCrafty:
Have any of you guys made rawhide from feral hog skins?  I'm going to visit the local processor today and he says I'm welcome to the deer and feral hog skins (he throws them away).  Thanks.

 If you try it I'd go with the young sows. I wouldn't want to chop and hack my way through a Boar Hog shield. I know the Green People will jump on this , but after you scrape it,wash it in gas and then in strong dish detergent with gloves on, of course. They are very greasey, this will save a lot of work.

JackCrafty:
Got it, thanks. :)

Auggie:
You might wanna look for TSP(tri sodium phosphate) at your hardware store it is better than soap detergents,really strong gotta wear protective gloves when using it. And its cheaper than gas!

JackCrafty:
TSP.....hmmmm....thanks Auggie.  :)
