According to the measurements of my wet tanned raccoon skin I need a form that is 2 ¼, 15 ½, 29 ½. Maybe it"s just me but that seems a bit too skinny for its length and too long in the first place. Please let me know what you think.

If these measurements were taken after tanning be sure you are not stretching the length. Shorten length and gain girth. Coons come in all shape and sizes. I've seen all sizes! With that said it does still seem to be a little on the skinny side if the length is correct. I would expect at least 20+ inch girth.
In my opinion it's probably best to get some carcass measurements or even over the fur measurements then after tanning and before ordering your form recheck the measurements.
Good luck.
