How to peel rabbit skin, how to deal with freshly peeled rabbit skin?

Divide the skin, don't want the skin two, don't want the simplicity of the skin, the head, limbs and tail, cut two mouths on the skin, and tear it off smoothly to get it (we don't eat rabbit heads, no meat, and troublesome).

If you want the skin, you have to work slowly, or chop off the tip of the rabbit's paws, cut the small mouth, the head is the most difficult to peel, and you have to use a knife to separate the meat skin little by little, and it is still the same in other places.

The easiest way to skin a rabbit is to start opening in the mouth and then push it down vigorously for a few minutes to peel it off, and the skin is very complete.

1. Raw hides and shovel oil: Most of the fresh skins of livestock and beasts after slaughter need to be cleaned and preserved, and can be processed by tanneries after a period of time. Cleanup method:

Cut off the hooves, ears, lips, tail, bones, etc., and then use a sharpener to remove the residual meat and fat under the skin, wash off the mud, feces, bruises, etc. on the skin, and then hang the fresh skin and meat facing outward and hang it in a ventilated place to dry to prevent strong light exposure. It can also be salted with hydrochloric acid, that is, the skin and meat surface are sprinkled with salt, the amount of salt is about 25% of the tare weight, and the salt is salted for about 6 days, that is, it should be piled up.

2. Soak in water and wash the skin: soak the treated fresh skin in the tank with water, the water temperature should be 15-18, and the time should be 6-10 hours. The purpose of soaking is to soften the raw skin by absorbing water.

3-4 kg of soda ash or 5-6 pieces of soap per 100 sheepskins; For every 100 dog skins, use 2-3 catties of soda ash or soap. Then put the soaked skin into the dilute lye solution to scrub to remove the oil, then rinse with clean water and wring it out. It takes about 4-6 minutes to wash the skin with alkaline water, and the washing time should not be too long, otherwise it is easy to cause fluff loss and affect the appearance of the fur.

3. Tanning in the lower cylinder: prepare tanning liquid according to the ratio of 4-5 parts of alum, 3-5 parts of salt and 100 parts of water. Mix well with warm water first, then add salt and water.

When the temperature is 15, less salt should be added, and more salt should be added when it is more than 20, and the water temperature should be about 30. After soaking the fur for 7-10 days, take it out, rinse the fur with water, the meat surface does not have to be too numerous, and finally use 10 parts of castor oil, 10 parts of soap, and 100 parts of water to prepare a solution, apply it to the semi-dry state of the fur meat surface, and properly spray this water to make it moist, and then wrap it with plastic film, and flatten it with stones.

Fourth, the skin is shaved and squeezed: the skin is flattened by the lower cylinder, placed on the grass or hung on a rope to dry, first dry the leather board, then dry the hair surface, and comb along the hair potential with your hands to restore the original shape of the hair potential. A blunt knife is then used to scrape off the remaining fat under the skin.

When operating, the left hand holds the leather plate tightly, and the right hand holds a blunt knife from top to bottom, scraping back and forth on the leather plate one by one, scraping until the leather plate is soft and relaxed. After scraping, the skin should be nailed to the wooden board so that it stretches out, and placed in a ventilated place to dry.

5. Finishing the hair type: After the skin is dry, use a pumice stone or sandpaper to smooth the meat surface, and remove and trim the edges. Finally, comb the hair with a comb, and the excessively long part can be properly trimmed to make the hair shape neat and beautiful.

When I was a child, my grandmother raised a lot of rabbits, and after my grandfather killed the rabbits, the peeled off should be stretched and hung by the branches, which not only kept the rabbit skin flat and beautiful, but also allowed the skin to dry gradually and not be corroded.

It's not clear what to do.

Don't make it hard, soak it in water until it softens, and then take it to the cobbler.
