the membrane they scraped off if boiled in low flame it becomes a very powerful wood glue
When I smoke my hides I use a square type grill dismantle the whole thing drill about 20 holes in the bottom and set it over the fire. Makes a lot of smoke and lasts a long time without having to add more punk.
Loved it and learned some

Great video. Do you have any info you can provide me about prepping the brains before I get to the braining step?
Mike, yes, please join us for our April Bison Tanning Class! www.greenuniversity.com/Class_Schedule/Bison_Tanning_Class.htm
How do you keep the hide moist while scraping if your just one person doing it?
Thank you.
For dry-scraping the hide must be completely dry. :)

Do you soak the fat and flesh before fleshing?
Ideally the flesh should be scraped off right away, before salting the hide for storage and before washing the hair. Do you want to tan a bison hide? Be sure to join our upcoming bison tanning class: www.greenuniversity.com/Class_Schedule/Bison_Tanning_Class.htm
Awesome videos! from Mongolia
what is the timeline for this entire process?
It takes about a week of labor to tan a bison hide. Our class is two-weeks long, partly to account for unpredictable weather: www.greenuniversity.com/Class_Schedule/Bison_Tanning_Class.htm
from the time you start with a fresh hide to the time you have a finished product, how long does 1 hide take?
Typically anywhere from 20 to 40 hours. You can join our Bison Tanning Class in April: www.greenuniversity.com/Class_Schedule/Bison_Tanning_Class.htm
Were these hides salted before the fleshing process?
I would like to know as well. I'm getting mixed info from all different sites. Did you find a good process that worked well?
Wonderful experience! Thanks! --- Clark

You can even use punk wood to plug small holes. I've done this with deer.

Where do you guys get your dry scraper tools from? As well as the sharpening stones?
Liam - You can order dry-scrape tools from braintan.com/. I believe the sharpening stones were from the hardware store. :)
How does it smell after all those steps?. Does it smell like dried meat?.
Tanned hides smell nice. I'm not sure how to describe it other than as a tanned hide smell. :) Here's another hide tanning video you might enjoy: ruclips.net/video/mmJz6Ok0GJw/видео.html
Do you find that you need to do a second scraping when you do deer hides?

Do you have any tips for highland cow hides? I just got one and it’s my first cow hide, talk about jumping in feet first… until now I’ve done sheep hide.
Thinning the hide is everything. Shave the hide thin enough to optimize brain penetration, and you should be doing good!
@@thomasjelpel I'm actually doing alum and salt tanning. I get my skins from a neighbor who is a part time butcher and until now have been doing sheep skins. I'm assuming alum will work for a cow skin as it does a sheep skin. It's going pretty good so far although it's been super hard to clean the fur. This animal is pure white and the shaggy fur makes the skin beneath the hair a nightmare to clean. There grime must be engrown into the outer flesh. Is there a way to bleach a white cow hide? Or should I just go at it with a pressure washer and a scrub brush? Seems alot of work for something that is being sold for less than 300 on etsy. Am I crazy, or is that super low?!?!
@@tashspond Candy - I don't know anything about alum tanning... or bleaching hides. A braintanned hide would sell for $1,000+, and it would be difficult to justify the labor at that. $300 sounds like giving it away. Good luck!
@@thomasjelpel that’s exactly what I said to the Etsy seller. If you search cow hides on Etsy, you will see what I mean. I sent them a message saying that there is NO WAY their hides are hand tanned as they claim unless they are using slaves.
Hi where I can have this classes
Here's the link: www.greenuniversity.com/Class_Schedule/Bison_Tanning_Class.htm
Awesome videos! I just found your channel! Shout out to Katy! Love and huggs! Raven
Do you salt the bison hide first?
Yes, the hides were salted soon after skinning to preserve them until tanning.
Do you have to salt the hide to lock in the hair or could you carry on with the the steps shown here the same day of skinning as long as you can get to it right away but without salting?
No need to salt it if you can go straight into the tanning. :)
Lastly, how do you prep the brains, how much water to brains, how long do you "cook" the solution? Also heard of folks using neats foot oil in addition to brains, what do you think? I'm picking up a bison hide next week from a local ranch, about to give it a whirl, thank you for your help!
Boil the brains thoroughly. Add enough water to soak up the hide thoroughly... maybe a gallon of water... Neat's foot oil is find too. Good luck!
Super cool

Brain tanning is a pain in the ass I’m pretty lazy so I just Alum tan my pelts it’s much easier
Ha! Yeah, braintanning can be a bit of work. Try this video too: ruclips.net/video/wrPKBHvVdmI/видео.html
If y'all would be a little more careful skinning and fleshing there wouldn't be as many holes in the hide and you would be able to use more of the hide
True. Unfortunately, our crew seldom has the privilege of skinning the bison themselves, so it's a matter of working with whatever we can get our hands on! Here's another video you might enjoy: ruclips.net/video/mmJz6Ok0GJw/видео.html
@@thomasjelpel thanks I appreciate it
I imagine your hippy sensibilities prevented you from going into detail about the braining solution. None the less, entertaining video.
You can get your own hands-on-brains experience in our upcoming bison tanning class: www.greenuniversity.com/Class_Schedule/Bison_Tanning_Class.htm
pdfico hippy sensibilities? Talk about senselessness
Asking politely about details for the brain tanning would probably get you better answers.
I've had good success using 1.5 cups of warm water per pound of brain. Mix until it's a consistent texture. Apply as needed.
try egg yolk and brains.
