dayglowfrog 56 Posted November 4, 2016 Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 I have shot my first squirrel and I want to tan the hide .its currently in a salt bath and I have a small amount of alum on order, 100grams I think. Got some neatsfoot oil on order and some artificial gut to sew it up . Going to make something out of it not sure what yet maybe a pellet pouch . Looked allover the internet and quantities seem to vary wildly on the alum front maybe its very cheap in America I am not using 2lbs of salt and 1 lb of alum for one hide. Does anyone have any solid tips ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
