Omschrijving

A Comprehensive Guide for Tanning, Leatherwork, and Buckskin Preservation

This deluxe reprint Legacy Edition of Albert B. Farnham's Home Tanning and Leather Making Guide is full of old-time tips and methods for preserving and working your own leathers, buckskin, and furs. Originally published in 1922, this handy little guide touches on every aspect of the fur and leather making process, with a focus on homemade and handcrafted preservation techniques used by Native Americans, trappers, and fur traders in the old days.

Farnham describes the many conventional chemical processes from the 1920s for preserving and de-hairing hides and leathers, as well as the more traditional processes for brain-tanning, scraping, fleshing, and stretching hides in the historic old-time ways. This handy book contains the centuries of ancestral knowledge on fur and hide preservation, teaching the reader how to make the most flexible, workable, and comfortable tanned leathers for any project, from moccasins to full shirts, jackets, or robes.

This book includes timeless knowledge on multiple tanning topics, including: selecting hides and skins; skinning, curing, and storing hides; materials and tools for leather making; fur preservation or fur removal; soaking and liming hides; tanning and stretching hides; deer hides and buckskin preparation; making robe skins; salting and curing hides for later work; preparing hides for sale; and various processes involved with preserving hides.

This book makes a perfect gift for handcrafters, leatherworkers, hunters, trappers, homesteaders, outdoors enthusiasts, and those who are into rendezvous and mountain man meetups.
