i ended up soaking it in meths for a few weeks then after washing it i hung it to dry for a few days and its turned out really nice... no hair loss . my next thing to try is a squirrel fur tanned for some mits if u have any tips or hints about tanning that would b aprechiated. im after a proper tan not alum/salt pickle as ive bn told the pickle will still rot if it gets wet as as the mits r for outdoor use thats no good lol.. was looking at egg tanning thanks

hi i have recently shot a few rabbits and feel that the skin is wasted. i would like to get the skin to a point where i could ask someone to make some gloves or pellet holder etc, anything really just so its been used instead of thrown away. ive seen salting and tanning on youtube and was wondering which one would be best for what im thinking of doing. thanks in advance wayne.

Hi I'm 30 in just over a year and want to apply for a fac for my 30th. My question is what caliber is a good all rounder for everything from rabbits to foxes. I realise this is probably the same as asking what caliber air rifle is best but the choices seem vast. Thanks in advance
