[Jacob-list] Skin tanning question

[ARTHUR PARTRIDGE]

Hi Chris,
Here's a bunch of websites for you. I just sent a hide to Lonestar Wool &
Fur, North Carolina. They bought the equipment from Moosehead Tanning in
Maine. I really thought Moosehead did a great job, but they closed down
last year. I thought I'd see how Lonestar does. I like the machine washable
pelts so make certain the tanner does that, if you want washable pelts. 
Many on this list have a favorite company.
