This is a photo of my son Nathanael, the one in the army now, so this photo was taken about ten years ago. Joe did the hard stuff, fleshed and dehaired, Nathanael tried but didn't have the arm strength. JOe also did the smoker as we didn't want him to. But he did the prebraining, prestretching, the wringing and softening. Even then using the pre-smoke method, a hide was pretty easy to do. Now they are even easier. dlt When he grew up, we explained to him how he could make more in a week doing hides, than he could in two or more weeks working some minimum wage job. He wasn't interested. But at least he did one and I'm glad I got a photo of it.
