While it worked very well, it was not fast. Probably only a good method for small projects and crafts. The tanneries use something called a scud I believe. They toss some chalk on the fur and sort of "flesh" off the guard hairs from the fur. I saw a video of it once on YouTube I think. The scud was like a dull tool made of wood or metal I think. Boco talked about it once. Maybe he could chime in. www.unionrivertrappers.org
