[Jacob-list] Pelt and fiber processing

[Meg Steensland]

I just got back 2 pelts from Bucks and agree - they do great work,  I took one in to show people where I worked 35 yrs in Columbus and could have sold it that day (but I told her that her cat might destroy it and then, she would not be happy). Another person who saw it told me last week that she wants to buy it (did not take on that trip) next week!
   
  My friend Dennis sends all his pelts there and is very happy with BUCKS.

  I have used Bucks County (Pennsylvania) and Stern's (Wisconsin) with good 
luck. However, there was a big fire at Stern's last month. They are in the 
process of rebuilding, but it will be a couple of months or more before they 
are up and running again.
