Tannery Home Tanning Kit - The Basic Home Tanning Kit was developed by a professional tanner with 27 years of experience. The kit utilizes a simple salt-alum process that is widely used. What makes this kit unique is our specially formulated oil. Alum tanning alone can leave you with a hard and crusty hide when improperly finished. This unfortunate state is prevented by using our specially formulated oil. It is a water soluble oil that will make the hide soft and supple without leaving the hide greasy or oily feeling.;The kit is designed so that the process can be completed in a small area over several days. (Some steps take 24-48 hours to finish. If you live in a very humid area, it may take longer.) There is very little mess and there are no harsh chemicals to worry about. The book contains formulas for tanning Deer, Elk*, Moose*, Antelope, Cow Calves, Goats, Sheep, Coyotes, Foxes, and Raccoons.;The Basic Kit includes: A Step-By-Step book, 1 bottle of Tanning Crystals, 1 bottles of Tanning Oil, Hide Scraper, and Sand Paper.
