Members Jim Posted February 27, 2015 Members Report Posted February 27, 2015 Alrighty then, this is the final posting for the chapters from my unfinished book. The title was "From Bags to Britches" and was to cover everything from making buckskin, to bags, gear, and finally clothing. Due to circumstances, I never got to complete the work but it has set on the shelf for twelve years and it's time to release what I do have. The attached text is a fun to read tutorial of the methods I have used to tan my own hides. It covers the basics of Brain Tanning as well as Alum Tanning. I hope you enjoy reading it. Sincerely, Jim R. SImmons Making Buckskin.pdf Quote Never forget where you are, so you will always remember where you've been.
Members cgleathercraft Posted February 27, 2015 Members Report Posted February 27, 2015 Love the title! Plan to tan my next deer. Didn't get a chance to hunt this year. Maybe next season I'll get the chance work some up! Quote http://www.cgleathercraft.com Member of the Iron Brigade.
