Default Shear a beaver

How do you shear a beaver hide like they do for coats?

There is not a lot of info on shearing in here but if you watch the fur coat video there is a small demo for the fur prep. There are also some other good, and not so good videos.

I saw a great video on shaving a Beaver, but I don't think they'd let me post it here!

Nick0danger if you ever get a chance watch a dvd by Dan Robinson Beaver On A Beam, and Otter Made Easy. It helped me a huge amount with skinning and fleshing beavers and otters. No more of that very tedious clean skinning. Sorry about getting a little off topic here. Jim
