moose pickle

Submitted by SJ on 07/30/2003. ( ) 64.33.161.4

I have a moose hide to pickle, and need to know if oxalic acid will work, and how long to leave it in the pickle. Also what should the ph of a moose pickle be in warm humid weather. If anybody has a secret method of shaving/thinning down a hide(I dont have a fleashing machine)please let me know! thanks much!
