So, how many would it take to get an equivalent of 3 yards of normal material? give or take.


A good life tip:

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Matthew 7:3

Cocktail napkin math would indicate 4 + or -

Depends on section the coyotes came from. Many eastern coyotes are substantially bigger than western coyotes.

easy to figure out by measuring the size of the standard stretching board width (x2) plus the length of the pelt on the board minus the head.
You will get shrinkage in the tanning but that will be recovered when blocking the tanned skins.


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