The Ultimate Guide to Skinning and Tanning
A comprehensive guide to preserving skins and pelts.
Here is a complete guide to a skill that may be mysterious to some, written by Monte Burch, an authority who practices many ancient traditions of tanning and hiding. Starting at the beginning, Burch introduces the hunter to the tools of a tanner, and even gives complete plans for making many of these implements. Instructions are given for making fleshing beams, stretchers for pelts, fleshing knives, and many others. He also covers tanning formulas and materials, both traditional and modern.
