Starting to move a little bit more the past couple days. Not a true rut by any means but starting to think the chicks ain’t as ugly as they were before.

Going shopping for some pants. Got this nice pair on layaway.

Should be mine by spring.

A dull drawknife makes quick work of fleshing, so keep one dull.

It’ll go into a 5 gallon bucket of water with 4-5 cups of wood ash for 4 days to break the hair loose, then I’ll dry it in the shop by the wood stove on a home made drying rack (pictures when I get to that step)
