Great video as always ....I learned from you several years back many thanks
Once again another great video. Great value to a library of teaching. You would make a fine instructor runny your on school. Keep up your good work👍
Dude you made it look so easy I tried my first skinning of Fox that got killed by car and it took me like 3-4 hrs to skin flesh and board with the ears and feet although I don’t have your equipment experience or skills I goterdone couldn’t have done it with out your instructions, Thanks man!
Really glad you made this video.
Hey could you show us all of your wall hangers from previous years and great job
Yes.
No.
If you could even say hi that would be awesome!
👍
Stu, this video was literally perfect timing for me. I watched it earlier today and per your instructions put up a red fox this afternoon feet on and split ears. Everything went exactly as you instructed except I found fleshing a fox kinda tedious. I took the saddle off but found it very difficult to get of the thin underlying fat off evenly. The pelt was cold too. I’ve watched your complete fur handling series but could you do a video specifically about fleshing again. Could you even get a close up of the fleshing knife to flesh angle so that we could see it in greater detail. I’ve got everything going good except the fleshing. I’d really appreciate a detailed fleshing video.
Getting ready to do my first fox today watched your video several times great material very informative first fox feet on here we go thanks
Almost an hour long video but interesting enough it felt like 10 minutes! Very educational!
I think that you should set up a web site to sell some pelts online for wall hangers to make some extra money when fur prices are low.
Awesome job showing the ears and feet! I got my first coyote last year and tried it and it took me a while to figure it out.
You ever thought about making dvds or books i feel like they'd do well. I've learned almost everything fur handling from you and also some good tips on tanning.
love your fur handling videos stew. wish you make a dvd so i had it to reference for life in case youtube gets even more nuts. love your videos man as always
Lol ik how to do this all and I'm 12 years old
Thanks for posting this, just tried my first fox a customer at my job shot and gave to me. Everything went good except the tail :( Brok off and then I ripped the skin trying to get the rest out, but think I will try to sew it back.
My wife and I caught our first fox Monday, I set the trap and she did the checking, but he’s a nice pretty male and I used this video to learn how to skin him out so she can do a wall hanger with it! This fox was the first animal of any quality that we’ve caught! Just started right before Christmas! Great videos!
Coon creek outdoors .... you should definitely do a tanning episode on the fox I really appreciate the videos you post ... very educational... I’m sure I could watch other TH-cam videos on it but I’d rather see how it’s done by you
My boyfriend and I found a little baby fox who was hit by a car, had a snapped neck. Other than that, the body is in really great condition, although neither of us have EVER done this before
This man has helped me in my trapping seasons so much keep up the work man
Very educational video.thamk you so much.keep them videos coming.🐆👍
Why did you cut the bottom lip and genitals off? If you're leaving the feet on and prepping the face why not use all of the fur?
Another awesome video.. this is the best one on the web that I’ve found... great job
Thanks for posting this. I was wanting to do this with my first coyote
What do you mean by over fleshing? And the sadle is that like the middle of the back? Thanks for this informative video
If you're gonna tan it yourself, you can just salt the whole thing after fleshing, and let it dry fur side in like that. Use a belly wedge, but you don't really need to pin it with salt. Next day, put fresh salt on/in. I have had issues with ears and the cartilage with esp Tubari fur dressers. But this year I had some with Moyles. Hair comes off the ears and around them. It bothers me so much that I am doing customer foxes via salting and in-shop tanning. I lost a trapping customer to Tubari's mess. They are fine if you want hides to make a blanket, or Russian style hats. But the trapper was really pissed about it, and a shame as he is the only trapper I know of near me. Foxes are notorious for fur slippage on the ears. I'm a taxidermist of 26 years, and been trapping 20 years. The other problem is where I am it gets warmer every winter, and I don't have that cold workplace that ears can cure at slower and better ( in my opinion, and I am really missing doing hay sets in snow).
Milankovitch cycles are a bugger for sure.
And once again GREAT JOB! Keep these videos coming
I definatly learned something from this one, thankk you so much.
Great video Stu...thanks so much!
Thank you!!! I've been waiting for a video like this for a while :)
Is there anything different in doing a bobcats feet? Do the claws stay extended out on a cat?
Great video! Very helpful. Can you do the same type of video's but with different animals? Keep up the great content.
Awesome video as usual, I would love to see a badger video start to finish like this. You're the man Stu
Would this be the cut procedure for a taxidermy mount?
What's the price difference between selling raw for fur or selling your services to tan a wall hanging? Thank you for these videos! Pretty proud of my coyote you taught me to do! I would recommend a more detailed video of just skinning the face. I got very confused about ears and eyes.... I did what you said to do and it came out great but I don't understand why or how 😅🤦♀️ thank you!!!! 🙏
.... also my neighbor does mink and said to use salt not borax but couldn't really tell me why... 🧐
Salt is better for tanning. Borax can mess with your pickle (salt bath, very acidic) pH. Salt also draws out more gunk from the skin. This is a good skill to have! You can get good money if you sell to taxidermists.
Thank you for this video Stu, this is exactly what I needed to learn!
How long can a fox sit if I couldn’t get to it immediately?
Gah, I’ve learned so much from you dude.
Coons
Fox
Deer
Rabbit
The list will keep going! Thank you
Opossum, almost forgot
Always love your vids. Very informative. Heard a shout out for you on trapping today about tanning gods and your instructional vids. 👍🏼 been a sub for years
Awesome video! Keep the fur handling and trapping videos coming. I watch all of your videos and I’m trapping this year for the first time thanks to your content.
really enjoy watching your video
Thanks for another great video. I learn new things from you all the time.
Most informative video I have ever seen. Gonna have to try that on one of my foxes
Another awsome fur handling video! 👍, im always recommending your channel to young coyote hunters who need to know the next steps after harvesting yoties or fox ..
How long do you dry him fur in before turning fur out
Wow! Those ears are quite surgical. Great explanation, thanks
Can you make a video on how you made your skinning winch thing?
Me as a Therian watching this💀…
2nd
Do u think fur prices will go ip
What part of illionis are u from
Thanks i will check out your playlist
We tann rabbits hides but im a beginner
Ive tried egg tanning on a few after scraping and salting
And have tried that Alum and salt brew
I prefer egg tanning but for many at once it be the brew
Interesting in learning other techniques thats how we found you
Thanks
Do you sell wall hangers retail
This camera kicks ass. Good video like always
I was fleshing my fox that I was gonna tan and i over fleshed so much I could see through it 😂 like it was clear as day 😂
I’ve done the same with a damn coon.😂🤣
@@t.g_buffington now how do ya do that 😂
Splitting ears is at 31.20
Are you a taxidermist
Not complaining but around 27:55 minutes in when you change cameras your voice sounds like you're in slow mo I don't know if it's the camera or the way you uploaded or processed the video. It doesn't matter but I just felt you probably would want to know.
Ok bud, heres the challenge making a fur blanket! Ive watched a lot of your stuff. It a fur blanket is something ive seen nobody do with real fur . You got folks doing it with fake fur or faux fur, but no real deal. Im not sure what would be the best to use in that application but i was thinking maybe coon or coyote. Tanned fur blanket.. i was considering trying it with coyote when the prices dip . Sooo whats your thought on that?
Is the fox alive
Grundens, someone has been on a boat once or twice.
How do we put those animals down without blowing a big hole in'em. Even a 22 makes a significant exit. Or is that exit hole acceptable to deal with later.?
great video. I'm hoping to try to skin few coyotes out with feet in this year. I will definitely be referencing this video. thank you for sharing
Fantastic! Hands down - the guy's a pro. I'm dying to get up into the hills north of my home territory and get some traps out. I have mostly Bridgers, 1.5's. What do you recommend, or use, for canines CCO?
What kind of knives do you have? How much did you want to spend on them?
Is a more expensive knife necessarily a better knife?
Good video. Thanks
Like the orthopedic guys. They come down to the ER with carpenter's tools. LOL!
Frist
I’m self-teaching myself how to tan, and I’ve got to say, your video’s are fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us and the world!! 🥰🥰💖💖 Especially when you aren’t charging, because there are people like me who are basically broke af but NEED the skill, and everyone is playing ‘keep away’ with me when I try to get answers from them 😠 So I thank you again, from the bottom of my heart 💖
can i use salt to tan ?
So I have a fox in the freezer right now and I just cannot seem to keep the tail on any animal that I have skinned or helped skin, so I was looking for some pointers on repairing a tail on a fox. It just ripped off about half way down
This was very interesting
Can you actually leave a rabbits head on?
Rube
Rdr2 be like:
Great video! I used this method on a couple of Fisher and they are looking great! Thanks!!!
How do you keep your knife from cutting to deep? I always struggle With cutting down into the muscle. I try to lift the knife but then I’m unable to make a single cut. I always end up cutting about an inch and the blade pops out.
Just wanted to thank you for all the great videos you put together I have a few questions. I do a little fly tying and materials are not cheap, so I try to collect my materials from the hunting I do.The question I have is how do I get the hides I harvest to have a thicker skin more like a Suede Like skin rather than a thin one I get from just using borax to dry it. Rabbit and squirrel in particular. Thanks in advance
Great job on the demo Stu and thanks for sharing with us. Later buddy and all the best.
caught my first fox today. Can you make a tanning video specifically for fox? Or should it be done as you did the coons in the tanning video?
I made your machine for skinning a couple of years ago. To pull tails, especially on coyotes, I use a metal tail stripper when you get the core of the tail exposed. Once I have it around the core I lower the animal to the point where I can put one side of the tail stripper in to one of the clamps. Then I use a pair of vice grips to hold the other side of the stripper. While holding the stripper level I pull the animal up and the tail comes out using the machine. An alternative is to pull the tail by hand rather than using the machine but still having it secured in the clamp. Saves a lot of struggling to get the tail out.
Do you kill skunks the same way as all the other animals? And how do you remove the smell from skunks?
How do you freeze them for storing? Rolled up? Flat & Stacked?
Good video. Doing feet and ears on a fox makes me think I'd like to display one of everything I trap. Thanks
I had to wash my fox does the fur need to be dry before I board it if I am tanning it like yours
Amazing teaching man! Really appreciate it! Very detailed.
Ok once you flesh and dry the pelts do you have to do anything else such as tanning or such for selling
Pretty interesting,never seen how it was actually done .i know a lot of the guys up north do it on a lot there critters,especially on wolf and wolverines.thanks for your time
Your fur handling is the best! Thank you for all the great videos Ive learned so much watching you!!
Excellent video!! Thanks for your detail
Very helpful will have to try this.
Thanks
Instead of borax could you set up a horizontal hanging system where the legs will hang down so no skin on skin? I feel that could help as well
That would def help. Just be sure to get the leg skins pushed back down before its too dried.
Awsome video can you show us how to skin and flesh a coon for taxidermy purposes
empty paper towel rolls work awesome for the legs keeps them sticking straight out
Awesome job, thanks for sharing with us pal
Best skinning video ever good detail awesome job keep up the good work
do you split the ears of a raccoon that you are getting tanned?
Coon creek Outdoors Love your videos do you have Badgers in your area
Do you handle the ears on coon the same way when you tan them?
Dont see knife in description would like one of those pelt knifes
Love the vids! Just a little too much talking..... simple to the point is sufficient. :) Cheers!
thanks. i am curious though, because i really do get this comment alot. this video was made for educational purposes only. that is its sole intent, not to entertain by to educate. how exactly does one go about teaching/explaining something without talking so much. i feel if you were to watch the video muted there would be many more unanswered questions rather than listening to someone explain things as they go. also you have to realize these videos are being made for a very wide variety of audiences, everyone from a complete novice to very experienced individuals. because of this sometimes the more experienced may find some of the information not as useful as the inexperienced. hopefully you can shed some light on this for me.
Very informative. Nice job.
