Does anyone have a blueprint or plans for a fleshing beam?  I just started trapping and am taking an iterest in mounting some of my catch, and this would be a good place to start.  Also, w/ the plans, the best material to build it out of...maple vs. ash or so on.  Thanks in advance.

Could be wrong but I think he meant good beam. I know I'll regret assuming.

WVhunter, that is not a fleshing beam that is for breaking hides. You scrap the hide over the metal piece at the top until they are soft.
