First time putting a beaver up. Please let me know if you can’t see the image as it’s my first time uploading a photo from my phone as well.

The fleshing looks good, but I'd add more nails.

Looking good.As said a few more nails

Great job fleshing

I suck at boarding my first one looked like a diamond shape that’s 100% better than I did on my first. I use wire hoops they are just easier for me to use.

Looks good,industry standard is nails 1 inch apart.Give or take a quarter inch.
Nail spacing doesnt matter if you are tanning it,but if selling they measure the shortest part of the scallops.
You can lose a size grade by having too few nails.

In the future if you plan to do a lot more beaver, get yourself a brad nail gun. I did after I lost a thumbnail.
Your first try looks better than my first try did. You will improve the more you do.

looks great, keep up the good work!!!

Couple of great Firsts

Great work

Nice job. A few more nails between eyes and front leg holes.

Thank you all for the kind words. I am using staples. Should I use more staples in the future? And how long does it take for a beaver to dry?

looks great, and unless its an under ice jumbo beaver it'll go to the hatter market. Meaning, you have plenty of nails.

that looks like a kit, should be dry in 2 days or so, put a fan close to it if you can

I remember my first one. It was a nightmare. Way to go!

Thank you
