I'm looking to set up a room for fur tanning. How do you guys tan your furs? Is there any special equipment I should get?
Any input is much appreciated!


You can't go wrong with being outdoors.

Really depends on what tanning agents you are using and what the final product will be used for. If you have never tanned before you really need to figure out if you even like to tan fur. It is a process and not everyone enjoys it. In order to be a good fur tanner you have to be a good fur handler as far as skinning and fleshing go.

know that MOST here don't sell tanned fur, only fleshed.
Personally, I'd ask the many full time experts at www.taxidermy.net
even tho many taxi's send to tanneries


www.sevenoakstrappingsupplies.com for trap mods and gear

I usually only tan about half a dozen of my furs a year so i don't have a set up like Boco's . but the stuff in the orange bottle works great for just a few


Till that day.....
