Fleshing Cone

There is nothing wrong with nicks in wood,,, you make is sound so terrible.

 

I use an old cow horn. Works for me.

 

i use a leg from a 1960's coffee table it is tapered very nicely. i can see the advantage in something harder but my experience is that plastic, industrial or otherwise will eventually nick. maybe stainless steel. .... lol

I use a lightbulb that looks like a trardrop then if the razor hits the glass it dont dig in or catch on the glass, that way you can flesh faster as you get to the edges because it won't dig in.......works well

 

I recently took stained glass class and discovered that they use a "fid" to smooth out copper and lead tape. The fid comes in various sizes but the smaller one works great on small critter eyes and noses.

 

What wattage light bulb works best? LOL!

 

I think the dimmer the better.

 

Looks like my dad's old Billy club, he used it for thumping tame rabbits.
