dude if you pee on it and then chew on it your never ever gonna find a women that wants anything to do with ya  :chuckle: thats just nasty......i did hear that after they soaked it in water and fire ash solution they would stretch it between a square and use lether strips to tie it every couple inches after they got it stretched tight all the way around they would rub the skin side with a long stick that grooves in it and big rocks. and then they would put big heavy rocks in the center to help stretch it as they rubbed it down to break all the fibers.... yeah i think i would make a big tumbler and throw abuch a pieces of 4x4"s and baseball and whatever else i could in there and just come back in a couple days  :tup:  :chuckle:
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"

Care to share a few details on your method :dunno:

Do not say, Why were the old days better than these? For it is not wise to ask such questions.
