I saw them being used on portable skinning tables at the FTA skinning demos this year. Worked pretty slick! Megapredator ... top of the food chain! Member of WTA Member of MTPCA Member of NTA

The hinge has a pin so I can remove the pin and take the beam and store It away during the off season. I use a regular saw horse under the beam to steady It and keep It at the right height. This system works for me. The forum Know It All according to Muskrat

This size and shaped beam will accommodate all pelts larger than mink, marten, muskrat, Use a 2X6 cut out in the shape of a large fox board with edges curved. This size and shaped beam will accommodate all pelts larger than mink, marten, muskrat, etc which are easily fleshed on their own shaping boards using a small pelt (stirrup) fleshing tool. Also build it to fit your height angling up about 30 degrees to your solar plexus. Last edited by bctomcat; 09/06/23 01:12 PM. The only constant in trapping is change so keep learning.
