    This is the first episode that covers the directions for making the aluminum sulfate solution. Don't be a dummy like me, wear gloves and remember to mix outside. When dissolved, aluminum sulfate makes sulfuric acid and can cause skin irritation. Breathing it in can cause problems with breathing as well. Just use common sense and be safe.

      I hope it worked for you. This is basic and a lot of info is missing (I've learned a bit since then). Follow my link to stay connected if you want. I'd love to see what your furs look like. I subbed.

    Pretty general wisdom says do NOT use iodized salt.
    A suggestion--cross out the SALT on your ALUM scoop; if someone else opens that bucket, they need to know what's in there for sure.
    Wooden stir stick, and a CLEAN GLASS or CLEAN PLASTIC container. NEVER use metal!!
    Any contamination in your container will be reflected in your results.
    Use hot water to mix your salt in first, then let it cool before making your full mix. The fumes are quite unpleasant.
    Also, the finer the salt, the faster it dissolves.
    Very good video, well done. :)

    Personally, I would wash/degrease firstly by itself,providing your skins are salted after skinning.
    I would degrease, then make my pickle by itself.you didnt mention temperature of pickle...temp. is very important

    Heya man, I'm wondering what would happen if an animal (including humans) ate a small amount of Alum? Am I right in thinking that it causes severe dehydration and thirst, and also damages the intestinal lining in that it shrinks the villi - in other words it literally would 'tan' a person internally? Any experience with this?

    • @PennsyltuckyTrapper
      @PennsyltuckyTrapper  5 лет назад +1

      Hmmm... Aluminum Sulfate is used as a preservative in the pickling process so I don't think a small amount being ingested would cause any damage. Remember, this process of preserving hides is actually PICKLING not tanning. It is simple and works for preserving the hide for hanging on a wall. I have no experience with eating alum just as it is though. I don't recommend it.

      It's just called washing soda. It's NOT borax. It's in the laundry isle. It is usually added to detergent.

      I'm afraid that is above my head. It works the way I videoed. I'm not an expert though. There are MUCH better methods. This is just what I knew at the time. Thanks for the comment. Hope you are well.
