i have seen many fleshing beams now and i was hoping to start a thread of just fleshing beams, i will start.

as you can see i like mine at a heavie angle and i also made mine so it is portable.

anyone else want to goin in on this

Thanks for starting this one buddy really gonna give me some new ideas

thanks, i was really hoping some of the guys would go in on this and show as many as possible.

PVC beam I use. It is a pulling beam as opposed to a pushing beam. Easy on the back and really easy to clean up.

I just got finished with my "Coon Creek Outdoors" PVC Beam, can't wait to put it through the paces...

^^^that is a set up right there^^^

I like the truck

you got that right!!!! love it

Been useing a peice of 10 " pvc pipe cut out like fleshing beam 5 long works well for me.

I have a large slab fleshing beam (like Matt Jones used in his fur handling video). I like it for beaver and scraping around the bottom end of critters. there is a small pair of vice grips screwed to the underside for clamping hides that are stubborn and don't want to stay put. usually just beavers, which I catch very few of. the table where I do my boarding was an island from a kitchen that I got for $10. just figured out that the angle bolted on the table would keep my boards in place while I pin or staple. I am a slow learner. I made the smaller beam but it needs a better base as it is too wobbly. had to cut a hole in the ceiling for the skinning machine, but it works great. can get enough length to do coyotes. best thing I have ever made by the way. the pole of the skinning machine has bolts welded to it for hanging tail strippers and zippers and going to build another shelf beside it for knives. like to have everything within arms reach. look forward to seeing other people's setups.

oh, and the linoleum on the wall makes for easier cleanup, which I am not very good at.

TTT

Nice set up guys.
I've posted these pictures before and got the idea from Trapsnap.
I've flesh'd in several different positions over the years.
The latest version a few years ago, since am older & back hurts when bending for extended periods of time, I built a small fur table and mounted beam straight out to my stomach.
You can add this to your work bench...


I built a wooden slot so beam fits tight, but slides out to store in off season.


Added two L-shaped brackets and lag bolted. Rock solid. Remove lags for storage in off season.




Breaking in beam...

Jonathan once did a thread that covered almost every kind of fleshing beam, ADC may still have it as it was also there.
Fleshing Beams in Revue IIRC; tried messaging ADC and it did not work

This one has worked well for me for over 30 years. Built out of a fir 2X6 in the shape of a fox board and fibre glassed.

And yes when done it folds into the wall, out of the way!

thank you guys and gals for all the pics!!!

what are the demson on the wood

TTT

anyone else care to join in on this, i was wanting this thread to carry on and see what are the other options and set ups....thanks again guys!
