I’ve never finished a beaver fur Great video

[@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790]

Coffey Outdoors thanks! I enjoy tanning fur, and hooping beavers is a nice way to finish them. I have made quite a few other things with them too. Thanks for watching!

The really cool. Makes me want to make one

[@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790]

Devin Bishop you should give it a try. Thanks for watching

Hi Jeromy .. would you have the details and measurements to make your box for bending saplings to make hoops ? thanks much !

[@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790]

Hey Gary I definitely will do that for you. It works great, and I always have willows ready. Some of the willows sit in the box for months before I use them, but time is your friend when it comes to shaping them.

@@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790 Thanks Brother ! looking forward to making a "Cooley Box" !!

Saw you on Tubbyguyoutdoors. Love you dogs, we have a dog named Oscar. That running water sound was great. I have never seen the Beaver Hooping before. Nice. We have some videos you would like check us out

The Art of RVing right on! I’ll check out your channel. Thanks for the comment!

[@abbyski]

Beautiful work! Can I ask what you use for tying the pelt to the hoop? Is it also leather or a different material?

[@jeromycooley-outwestadvent5790]

Thanks for the comment! I’m using an artificial sinew that is waxed. It is incredibly strong, and has a great look to it. I find it on Amazon for about $15 for 300 yards of material.
