No effect on the fur quality.... even though the Canadian auctions would often grade them as damaged from "tick bites". Used to drive me nuts. My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

I get those freckles on the few I've caught here in WI also. Always wondered what they were from. Sometimes don't notice them until the hide dries some.

Quicker and saves on the boards. Just a few nails to get basic tail and body length and the rest push pins. And yes neat work for sure. Last edited by crosspatch; 02/06/23 09:36 AM.
