Not a pro but I've put up a couple hundred, here's the only picture I could find from a couple years ago. Sorry the photos a little blurry [Linked Image]

Note how the tail is boned out, fleshed and tacked open to dry properly. Very important.

Whether it is the craft market or the Jewish hat market - the tail is probably the most valueable part of a skunk pelt.

And properly put up, a prime skunk pelt is a thing of beauty too.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Don't have skunk boards. Would a coon board or fox board do?

Red fox board is what I always use
Grey fox boards are the dimensions FHA gives in its manual

Fox probably. Coon board too wide.

Not on a stretcher, but one I finished a couple years ago.
