I watched Robert's Frost Scrape a beaver at the Fur Harvesters Auctions Convention this weekend. He makes it look easy as long as the temperature is right. At least minus 20. I videoed Robert about 10 years ago doing a beaver in a few minutes outside when conditions were right. This year he put it in a freezer overnight after boading and scraped the next day. Great Demo. Always learn & enjoy his fur handling demos.

Boco at work!

Very cool, would love to see your video if you still have it. Didn't know they put on a convention. Bet those are great. Bobs looking good

Robert also did a martin handling presentation. The man knows how to handle fur.


Jeff G’s fur grading presentation is also a must see.
When you can see all different species, grades and colours side by side it becomes pretty evident how grading is done and how your put up is important.



If you’ve never been to one of these conventions, or don’t send your fur to FHA, you’re missing out.

I’m already planning on the flight out for next years event. Too far to drive.

Dropped off skunks and a fisher with FHA agents Ernie and Dawn Mosher yesterday
They took over Toby Edwards route. Very nice people.
