That's his job, and his living. $$$$$ Might try Moyles, or any of the other commercial tanners, that's where most taxi guy's send them anyway.

If you dont mind a little work, do em yourself. Get on youtube or google and order a tanning kit. It really is a neat experience.

Deerskin is very easy to tan-very loose fibres unlike beaver.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

I believe that is PATrapper. Braintanning is the way to go, in my eyes. Beautiful end results. Simple process. Simple ingredients.

local ones think they should get $100/hr for fleshing.

I'd keep the biz here in the east at Tubari or Z&L Trading, it'd be worth a call.

Thanks, Bob. I assume you meant me.? I been keeping quiet because I have tons of orders.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.
