Does anyone here use a fleshing machine? Seem popular in the taxidermy world. Expensive sure, but seems like it would save a bunch of time.

From what I have researched a fleshing machine is more fore thinning a hide than actually fleshing. Most animals have thick spots on the neck and back witch the machine is used to thin out.

I believe you are talking about two different types of fleshing machines. The fur finishing kind is using a long cone.
