The big ones don't fit in the mop wringer very well, lol regular ones no problem.
I'm starting on the ones I skinned 2 years ago [Linked Image]

Not at all what I was expecting. That's a creative way to get water out of a hide, that I suspect works well. It made me laugh.

Lot of work for little pay.

It looks like something that would happen to Wile E. Coyote in a Road Runner cartoon.

I clean, wax floors, clean carpet for a living 37 years now.
I used to do it all by hand, then about 20 years ago I tried doing it with the mop buckets I already had
I snap the remaining excess water from each end after the wringer

I skinned these two years ago, I figured it won't pay much, but figured it's better than sitting here in the house taking care of my wife

And while it may not pay $$ to go the extra mile, I do find great satisfaction in putting up my fur as if it will bring alot of $$. Always have, reckon I always will. The first beaver I ever caught when I was probably 12 years old I fleshed with an old paring knife. Went to the furbuyer and he said "Holy (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman)!". I thought what had I done wrong, he said he had never seen a beaver fleshed and dried so nicely. He said I didnt need to go to that much trouble, but ever since then I have been hooked on making my fur look as good as the best in the room if not better.
