Newer trapper here in need of tanning advice. Also my first post here, Have tanned before with the orange bottle. I have never tumbled but want to try the clothes dryer as a tumbler. Can someone please give me the step by step for fur that was case skinned and frozen. So it will need thawed, fleshed, tumbled etc.. Not sure of the order of steps or recipes for mixtures to tumble with. From what I have read on here I am leaning towards corn cob grit and a clothes dryer. What type of bag do people use? how long? What chemicals to mix? Sorry just kind of overwhelmed and need a good starting point. Thank you in advance.

Make sure that you put it on TUMBLE dry not heat dry. I'll give you the link that I used for my beaver from someone who knows a lot about tanning.
