    Job well done! Amy is one of the best taxidermists in the Country. I’m with you, it means something to do it yourself and ain’t nobody gonna be turning it out to check if it’s tannery quality. Looks great to me

    Great job brother, don’t be afraid to use a sander on the hides it helps thin them but also helps with breaking tougher hides. Keep up the great work
