Helpfull ideas for skining


Recommended Posts

As you may know I shoot a lot of goats and before I get a mate to make a weight bareing support to hang the carcasses from has anyone got any ideas how I might make this object.Im going to bolt it on the side of a shed 8 feet high.I need A steel support to hang the bodys from.I have bought a wratchet winch and 1 ton pulley system and need something strong enough to hold very heavy animals.My elbows are fecked from draging and lifting these buggers.This would make life much easier as I am shooting the goats on an ongoing basis.I have had about 50 down this season and still not making any headway into them,here is something like what I want but it must come much further from the wall so I can walk around it.The photo is of a deer my mate got me for eating and from this you can visualise(maybe)what Im looking for

and from previous outings this is what Id need them for.If anyone has a system that might be ideal for what I want before I go ahead and get this going I would be very gratefull.

your to far away but some good box section bolted and welded to wall and block and tackle would lift them up or a little hydraulic winch made up of an old generator, we use simliar for lifting creels hydraulic pulley save alot of work

Here is netto shop, i buy elecric 240volt electric winch,(was £30) this i fasten to roof beam in barn,with chain. Plug in wall , use stippop in back leg of animal & lift. No work ! Just take bowl out of animal, pull skin off, when warm. I do many sheep, cow,deer,goat easy now. No lift by arm. If also attach to floor 'eye' bolt, can lower animal on winch, attach back leg skin & lift up. Skin pull off easy.

thanks clint,i got the most of it but where is the netto shop?I would be interested in a hoist like this for such small money.I will try to get the beam as strong as possible and that would take the heaviest of animals.
