Was thinking on buying a fleshing machine from bobcat-fox to deer and mabe bear and a few moose. would the larger fleshers be ok for the smaller game? say a dakota 5 or eager beaver. Thanks

wire wheel for coyotes on down, Fleshing machine for deer on up. The machines on small mammels will eat them up and you will get real good at sewing.


The very best machines won't

But you're looking at a top end machine in the $1200 to $1500 bracket. The less expensive machines are more for fleshing than they are for shaving.
