The Adventures of Stinky Rawhide: Deerskin Soup, Part 1
Minuteman:
If you don't have em fleshed and don't change the water for two days , you are in for an olfactory assault my friend!
Keep us posted. ;)

Picked up a bunch more skins last night....seven I think....and 32 feet. I washed the blood off ALL the skins and put 'em all together in a big bin. The first batch still smells fresh....luckily it's been very cool during the day...with 20's and 30's at night. I think I've got enough to keep me very busy this weekend. ;D
Minuteman:
Good grief ! :o You ARE a glutton for punishment! ;)I gotta get a new set up for fleshing next year . The waist beam is killing my back. :'( Though I probably have it set too low.
Got the hole-less skin( the 4 day water soaked one) dehaired and into a the cooler with the other ones. It slipped pretty easy not as easy as two days in the buck but very little work involved.
They are all soaking in water with a little vinegar.
I am gonna have to scud off the flesh side again to get the ash out of it, I'm afraid.
Jack , you might wanna change the name of this thread to hides hysterics or something like that. "Stinky rawhide" just doesn't sound right. Like its some cowboy's name from a b movie or something.
JackCrafty:
Heheh.....hides hysterics.... :D
OK, I changed the name of the thread. ;D

Good to see you guys earning some real "oooga booga" credentials. I can tell you it is a lot more fun to read your "adventures" than it is to be in your shoes. But when you get to the end.....It's worth it! Just think, leather that's good enough to eat!!
Well, maybe not that good, but all-natural?
