Beaver are the hardest to do,because of all the shaving to thin the leather.I ship big beaver to the tannery,I do smaller beavers since they are not much shaving needed." I have a spoke shave and a real good draw knife but they dig. So playing around I came up with the round saw blade mounted ina vise. /that is the best that I have come up with for me. Now of course on fox and possum and the like nothing is needed more that just a good regular fleshing beam and knife Free people are not equal. Equal people are not free.

The winter ones have a full veil so the guard hairs stand straight up,the veil(underfur on the neck and shoulders) is a lighter colour. Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

They don't get any better than that. He can’t even post a you tube music video on here….But he can tan pelts with the best of them It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

This was a year or two ago, It was added to the archives I do believe. Very informative post it was too. Chris >>In God we trust<<

I myself prefer the ones I've done that look like they got into a fight with a monkey with ADHD holding a samurai sword. Millions of trees die every year to print environmentalist publications
