Does anyone send their fur to get tanned? And if so who do you send it?

Thanks Zee

I've been told that their turn around time has improved greatly from what it was a year ago.

Exactly. Tubari did outstanding work on my beaver hides, then Tassos of Excel Furs built my coat. Perfect.

I would never send anything to Tubari.
Worst job, worst service and longest wait. They chemical burned the fur on my beaver. Looks severely singed. That took a full year and now after two years I have given up on ever seeing the nutria I sent.
Also they seemed to not be able to track your order.

Wow, Im sorry to hear that ! I had mine done some years ago, and they did a great job . The guy who oversees the operation is from Canada, and he explained their process to me. They hand pluck their furs, no machines...and yes the waiting is a while, but was worth it. At least thats who was in operation and how they worked back then.

Bruce,
The only problem is that Tubari's is the only place in the US that plucks and shears; please correct me if I'm wrong, I'd like to know of an alternative. There used to be a place in Quebec City, Quebec but I think they are out of business.

You may not know this, but Leo from Z&L is a middleman and sends his pelts straight to Tubari.

Tubari does a great job, though.

just an FYI,

Tubari may have better rates direct.

Waggler - as far as I know, tubari is the only US tannery that plucks and shears beaver. It is a tedious process and they are usually backlogged on this item.

Ryan at Moyle Mink has been talking about adding this process for quite a few years now but as far as I know it is still in the talking stage. LOL
