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

Ship some of your stretched and dried beaver pelts to a reputable tannery. They are normally pretty reasonable $25-32 depending how many you send.

Moyles in Idaho charges $23.00 to $32.00 per pelt depending on size and quantity. Here is a link to their price chart.

https://www.moytown.com/docs/MMT_Intact%20Fur%20Dressing%20Pricelist_10-24-18_WEB-v2.pdf

Prices for pelts that are already tanned will start at $50.00 and go up,from there.

Muskrat on here could hoop them for you. I saw his work this past year at a rendezvous. Very impressive.

I brain tan my own on the board. since Im hooping I don't worry about breaking much and getting supple. when done they are not real stiff but definitely not garment material

Curious if many of you ever hoop furbearers (i.e. beaver or muskrat) or if you leave it up to pro's...

I'm left with a few pelts that aren't very marketable for me now that Groeny suspended all his routes (I was supposed to meet up with him last night). I figure it might be my time to try to hoop a couple things for my wall this year. I haven't looked for any of the sticks yet. Curious where you buy that lacing material...

So lets hear about your attempt at hooping, maybe even show off a picture smile

I'm trying to think outside the box in this down market. I may attempt a beaver rug
