Anyone here tan and cure their hyde?
#1
I have a nice barn I just completed as my man room. Concrete floor 800 square foot two story with 110/220v, plumbing and refrigerator. I was thinking it would be cool to line the wall with my hides. I used to do it when I was a kid with salt on the rabbits and squirrels but never tried a deer hide.
Any suggestions or is it not worth it. I thought it would look cool as wall paper with my mounts.

It's a little work, but worth it, there are several ways you can do it. I've just salted them, and I've used cures, and had decent luck both ways. If you want it to be soft, you need to use a cure on it. I've used this stuff...

Thanks Doug. I know there is a specific way to skin them but other than that I think a wallpaper of my kills would be cool on the other side of the room from their mounts.
