PVC Fleshing Board

[kdrtk]

I have picked up some tips on the Forum. Thought I would share one that worked out well for me.
I read with interest about PVC fleshing boards, and looked at the six inch and 8 inch pipe, but the curve was to much to suit me.
I found a piece of beat up 12 inch pvc sewer pipe and that looked good against my fleshing knife.
Used a fur stretcher pulled in to just under 8 inches for tracing the shape. Cut with jig saw, roughened surface and smoothed edges with my
dowel in a drill super sander. Since I had four pieces I made two wall mount and one vice mount which I cut a little shorter and narrower.
After using them the little vice mount is my favorite for small jobs, but the big ones are better for high volume fleshing.

I'm glad you posted pictures.  I feel SO much better about my cluttered work bench now. LOL

One note.  Those screws you have holding the board underneath.  They need to be countersunk and then FILLED WITH EPOXY. Then they should be sanded down.  If you don't, invariably, you're going to push the drawknife a bit too far and going to "punch out" a hole in your hide.  Been there, done that.
