You'll destroy it if you try that! Get some tanning oil, or the kind of conditioner they sell in upper end shoe shops for reptile skin. Treat both sides and then lay out flat and either tack down, ot use this wood lathing and run it down the sides t
and secure. Do this for a day or so till the skin absirbs the lubricanbt in the conditioner. Then you can manipulate the skin without worry of tearing!
