Egg Tan A Sheepskin - Learning from YouTube university
Went to slaughter a sheep & decided to tan the sheepskin. Else the farmer just throw away the skin. I can't bear to see these beautiful skins rot. Things YouTube university did not tell you / did not emphasize enough: 1. Fleshing is a bear. By day 3, I almost quit 2. By day 2, if the fat & the flesh are still on the skin, it starts to smell to high heavens 3. This project requires a lot of perseverance 4. The farmer said, mature sheepskin should be used else the wool will come off in due time. Mature sheep have a black face This video is only about 7 mins long, but this project actually took me about a month to complete. The videos I used as guide for this DIY project: 1.
