    Just wondering how many of you do that many deer. I made something for my shop you may be interested in.

    I made myself a cape stretcher that is very qucik and easy to use, it takes maybe a minute to stretch a cape and no physical strain. My wife can easily use it.
    When I made it i hadn't considered making them for anyone else, but a few people have seen it and asked why i wouldn't make them and sell them.
    i haven't really figured out exactly what would cost to manufacture but I think it would probably be $400 or somewhere in that neighborhood and was just curious if anyone would be interested at that cost?
    I figured a guy would have to do quite a few Deer to justify that cost.

    Dave, I think I have seen your cape stretcher and if it is in fact the one I checked out its bad a**. IMPO you better get a patent on it quick. Now for the price of $400 that's a little steep. Maybe $200 at best and that's using stainless parts (if its the same one I saw that is)
