Default Amazing find on Kijiji!



I made a deal on this last night and a friend is picking it up for me today. My wife and I are very excited to be able to make some projects of our own. I see a hefty bill at the tannery in my future.

Awesome find indeed! I sew a wolf fur ruff on a jacket hood last week and I wished I had one of these rather than my wife's regular sewing machine.

Of course the day I sent every piece of fur I had to auction I found this unit. I guess I will just have to trap a little harder the rest of the winter!

Good buy , TFNG , I figure a couple coyotes in that photo of yours should cover the expense ..

Yes absolutely. That's the plan! We have no experience making fur articles but with some practice we should be able to get the hang of it. I'm looking forward to owning a pair of mitts made from my own fur!

Lol. I see my error now. My fur is not very nice so I will use the fur from animals I trap.
