   Well done. When you trim, use a scalpel cutting from the skin side so the hair isnt cut. The first skin i tanned i trimmed using scissors!!!!!

   Cool. Happy to be able to help you :-) You can trim those uneven edges up if you want a more uniform shape. It wasnt skinned with tanning in mind - more to just remove it.

   Not suitable for all audiences, a fawn being shot at 50-60 yards with a .223 and a Falcon Thermal. Part of some pest control. https://youtu.be/i46m0c7dx1g?si=e1aPQEkXR5bIHWF7

   Find out who your local butcher is that processes wild animals, they will/should have heaps of skins they throw out

    Join the North Canterbury NZDA. Do the HUNTS course and come to the meetings (last Monday of a month). Next one is in February. Hunts course for 2025 is completed so will need to be in 2026.

    From what I've seen,the "friends" bit doesn't do squat.... The PM's come enabled after you've been member long enough and posted enough that the moderation team believe your not just a spammer etc.

    I'm sure you will able to send PM's soon enough. Get out for a few walks so hills won't bother you in mean time. Eat far too much food over Christmas and we will see what can jack up in new year.......
