Default thanks, Wetaskiwin

thanks bush master i am from wetaskiwin sorry i did not reply sooner. yes that web page helped a lot with the pictures gives a guy a pretty good idea , now i am wondering about a split stretcher or a solid one with a belly wedge the split ones seem to be the way to go you do not need more then one size if i understand what i have been reading.

The only ones I have ever used are the split, adjustable ones....I like 'em.
But I can't say anything bad about the solid boards as I've never tried them.
The coyotes come off of the adjustables easy , though.

Default split stretcher patterns

ruger had said he was going to post some pictures and measuments for a split stretcheri have found a web page with patterns for solid ones with a belly wedge but you need two or three stretchers for diffrent sizes. so once skinned and stretched you leave the pelt on the board over night then you turn it fur side out so how long in total do you have to leave it on the stretching boards?

Halford Hide in Edmonton has splitboards for about 16 bucks each. They are built to proper dimensions.
