Ok thank you JimB. Skin is drying nicely. It will be going on my sinew backed Osage bow this week end. I have one skin drying on that bow right now.

When it is done it will accompany me to Idaho for my bear hunt.

I skin, flesh it...soak in borax for a week...flesh again to make sure then staple to board to dry with scaled down.  when ready to put on bow soak in water....remove scales....and install per instructions I got from Paul Brunner many years ago.
Keep em sharp,
