Coyote fur Stretcher
« on: December 17, 2012, 06:42:27 PM »
How do you build a split coyote fur stretcher? What are the dimensions? How do you keep the tip together?

Thanks

Look up FHA and NAFA both fur houses have excellent online fur handling manuals. Although I don't think they have the plans for an adjustable stretcher, they have the dimensions for a solid coyote board. From that you will be able to figure out your adjustable stretcher. The tips of my stretchers either have a leather strip tacked along the top edge, or a headless nail holding the two halves together were they meet at the snout of the stretcher. Both methods allow movement while holding the halves together.
I have never stretched a coyote on a solid board. But, I have come to prefer a solid board for cats. One tip: After the cat is stretched on the board I insert the belly board from the mouth end of the pelt instead of the belly end. I think I would do the same with a coyote on a solid board.
