search 1 click here

This will get you started..type on the search button..type in "tanning hides" but only under pow wow and it will give you several pages of previous topics.
Hope this helps!   :)

2nd on the 'quick-tan' type stuff. I've done several deer, coons, and a coyote. It's not as flexible or soft as what you'll get by professional means, but it does preserve the hide. I've never done any brain tanning but there's plenty of guys on here who have...
