Boco, what brand sewing machine do you use? Bonis B-machine. D+3B,those pelts were all tanned at international in Winnipeg. They are shaved evenly,the dark is from the leather being wetted for blocking.

Amazing thread here. Boco really makes this Trapperman site worth while.

The old bonis neverstop in action.All steel,no plastic-made in the 1940's-they dont make stuff like that anymore. ![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2023/09/full-21521-189558-dscf5658.jpg) A fur machine is a good investment-it is like having a machine that prints money.
