    Yes, works great. As stated mix to paste, leave to to dry till it flakes off. Will last for decades. Hardest part is getting all the meat etc of the skin first. The cleaner it is the better the end result. Also works on deer hides.

    I did a lot of tanning 40 years ago and the tool I used to use for flensing was, I think, a type of bricklayers tool called an 'escutcheon" hammer, but of course the spelling may be wrong!
    You could make a tool from a fork for light and small skins by cutting the tines down and bending the head in a right angle.
    Those Ledreiters kits used to be great, and easy to use.
