Looks pretty dang good!

Still waiting for responses from a support ticket. Nothing we can do to speed it along until they get back to us. Thanks for suffering through. lol

Yes, quebracho works great. IMO the thing about slowly strengthening the tea is way over emphasized. You are not likely to case harden the hides. But there's a lot to getting really good leather. I'd suggest Matt Richards online classes if you can. For furs, I pickle first. I like safety acid for the pickle, but there's different acids you can use. Ph is pretty important. The ph of my pickle is 2 or under. Then neutralize somewhat before putting into the barktan. That's what works for me. You are more likely to have the bark solution too weak and rot the hide than too strong.

no food plot no feeder no watched him grow.......just went an ended up with a freak

Last night, coming home from eating out… I spotted a big ole fresh roadkill coon… being in my wife’s vehicle, I never even uttered a word about stopping, but I knew it would still be there this morning…. Something in the back of my head kept telling me just leave it, but I couldn’t do it… so I make the 10 mile round trip and gather my coon.. he’s a nice one.. biggest this year! I clamp his foot in my skinning machine.. make All the necessary cuts and on the first pull… his leg comes detached… switch legs and start the second pull.. it also comes detached.. so now I have a rope tied around the base of the tail, finally get the legs skint.. clamp the hide in my vice grips and gently hit the winch button.. yep.. the backbone gives way and down it comes.. along with all the intestines… he was full of acorns if any of you were wondering… finally get him tied back up.. winch bottoms out.. re tied.. had to adjust the vice grips and tear a hole in him.. finally get him skint , fleshed and on a board.. I would not doubt it took me 45 minutes from start to finish… maybe he will bring $4!!!

5 1/2 inches here now. Another 3 to 5 later today. Thats more than normal for us. Especially so early.
It really don't affect me. Doc says no bending, lifting or twisting. So I can't even think about shoveling. pretty boreing though.
