How cool to read so many homages to Randy Anderson
« Reply #15 on: March 09, 2009, 10:24:50 PM »
It really pleases me to read that so many others have come to the same impression of Randy Anderson that I have, through his videos. Humble, patient, encouraging. He's the reason I started calling, a little over a year ago. I, too would have loved to meet him.  Maybe one or more of us could host him on a hunt or two and get Washington represented on his videos.  Think about it (you guys that are more successful than I at finding coyotes).  I, personally, would love to see Washington represented on his videos.  How cool would that be?

I'd better get back to scraping that hide.  I expect to be up til midnight before it gets salted. This is hard work when you don't know what a good tool or technique looks like.  I am using a modified soup spoon with some success (serrated edges, by file).

This really is a 2-in-1 tool! This fast worker is a real taxidermist's friend. It claws through stubborn flesh with one end and shaves smooth with the other! It has a non-slip handle that is made of vinyl. Its 1 1/2" blade works for both small and medium-sized animal and bird hides. Weighs 1 lb 6 ounces.

Nice tool.  It looks like I could have been a bit more aggressive filing teeth into my makeshift scraper. I wasn't getting a lot of purchase.  I did get it scraped and salted tonight. My first ever.

Thanks for the tip. Where would one buy such a tool?
