drying own skins - 03/11/03 04:09 AM
A squirrel got squished by my house. I walked out, drug it in back, and skinned it. How do I preserve the skin so that I can use the fur for fly tying? Just dry it?
I scrubbed most of the fat off the back. I've read to use salt and alum.
My main point is to not let it smell.
