First attempt at tanning a coyote hide
« on: May 03, 2016, 02:40:36 PM »
I used a home tanning kit from Sportman's and tanned a coyote I got back in December.  I did a horrible job fleshing and put a bunch of little holes in it but for a wall hanger, I think it turned out well. I know if I do another, I need a proper fleshing beam. I'm surprised on how soft the leather turned out.

It turned out great for a first. I know the first pelt I tried doing I tore into bits and lost a bunch of hair off of it. Looks great!  :tup:
