Members DaleksInc Posted October 13, 2024 Members Report Posted October 13, 2024 I just picked up a couple of rabbit pelts for cheap (my local Scout camp's trading post had them for whatever reason, and was doing a blow-out sale.) How do you suggest I use them (and/or how do people typically use them)? I generally do figure carving, so I've never used furs before. For reference, I've attached a picture of the pelts. Quote For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith. For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Members billybopp Posted October 13, 2024 Members Report Posted October 13, 2024 Gloves are pretty complex to make, but I've got a pair of commercially made rabbit lined gloves that I LOVE in winter! Quote
Members Sheilajeanne Posted October 14, 2024 Members Report Posted October 14, 2024 One thing to be aware of - rabbit fur sheds - a lot! It is not very durable, so using it as a liner may be your best bet. Quote
Contributing Member fredk Posted October 14, 2024 Contributing Member Report Posted October 14, 2024 I dunno what do with that darned wabbit I have a number of skins I've picked up over the years. I sometimes put some out on my table at craft fairs and put small leather items on them. Seems a nice way to display the items Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..
Members purplefox66 Posted October 15, 2024 Members Report Posted October 15, 2024 Make a pistol case and line it with the pelts Quote

I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!

Expand Good idea! Unfortunately, my lodge has been distancing itself from Native American regalia for most ceremonies, as the tribes which used to live in our area were "resettled" far enough away that we can't easily set up a good dialogue with them.
