Yep, case skin them and put them on a wooden mink board.   Do you need a board?  I can send you one.

When you flesh try and leave the saddle on. Sometimes this is hard as fat as they can be but you can get downgraded if you remove the saddle. Important to get the fat off though. Sometimes you can kind of squee gee the fat out from under the saddle. better to take it off then to leave the fat though.
When you board the mink pin the back legs on the same side as the tail and pin the tail as short as you can.
Don't forget the belly board!

There was a mink farm across the street from my house growing up, they stink bigtime! I recommend purification by fire before skinning :P
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

The worst was the cages with yotes in them. I used to hate how they paced with me in those cages as I walked to my bus stop :yike:
