Has anyone ever used those fleshing machines taxidermists use? Are they any good on a raw rough skinned pelt?

Good to hear from you paysho. I thought of you this fall when I set a few specialized snares with the "paysho option."
I have a couple of bear hides that I'm thinking of frost scraping. But I'll see if the peddlar wants them unfleshed first. He's in town tomorrow.
I'm asking about the machine because someone has one for sale. I don't want to miss an "opportunity" but I've never needed one before. If it speeds up the work it might be worth it. If not, it's useless to me.
