Pulling a hide to leather is a good workout. Here I show a couple techniques both ancient and modern to stretch the fibers of the hide. Stretching is necessary to break the collagen that sets as moisture leaves the deer skin. The tanning solution provides the fats needed to break down collagen but stretching keeps them broke. Sometimes it takes a few rounds in the tanning solution/ wringing and stretching dry. Every hide is different. #bucskinpants #hidestretching #deerskin | Michael Ridge
