Thread: Hanging Tahr Skin??

Screw the ply mounted skin to the wall studs in four places, done

How did you tack the skin to the ply ?

Hope you are sitting when you read this, I need to sit while I admit what I have done publicly. I lifted the hair and stapled it through the leather to the ply at the edges.

Yep, guess that will work and if it’s hidden under the hair no one will notice.
Cheers.
