How exactly to make elk leather
More_tribal_interaction:
Tried to search the forum for an answer, but to no avail.
How exactly do I make elk leather (or bear/reindeer etc)?
Is dehairing once enough?
Tks.
Signatus:
You have to de-hair and then tan it normally. I don't think you need to dehair more than once, since it takes a few days, but I'm not sure. I usually just make furs.
Ara D.:
Word to if advise keep a close I on leather the soaking process takes days and once it is complete the hide will begin to lose quality and rot like normal. I have lost or let many hides go to harsh because I was away roaming when the de-hair process was done
Brygun:
The need to track when de-hairing is done is often how players start writing a character journal.
Dehair is just once.
The process will be like
kill animal
skin animal
clean skin
dehair skin (takes weeks of soaking)
tan skin
rinse skin
finish skin
you can usually put the animal fat into a cellar to have it available for the tanning. If not use bark from rowan or adler
Tom H:
I'll reiterate the warnings of others- DO NOT lose track of the status of your furs. I'm sure that I've wasted more than I've made into leather from spending an extra day on the road and then finding my skins rotted.
Otoh- Unless you've a desire to outfit yourself with a lot of leather armor, there's really very little call for leather in the game. Skis, ski poles, that's pretty much all you'll find a use for.
