Questions on coyote quiver..?
« on: July 17, 2013, 02:34:35 pm »
Hey all,

I have a case skinned male yote that is perfect sized for a quiver. My question is should I split it and line it with leather, then sew it back up. Or can I leave it "cased" and sew up the bottom. Any and all insight is welcomed. Its a gorgeous hide and I would prefer to do it right for the animals sake.

Pearlie, Patrick(Jackcrafty) has a great build along in the How To section but it was a few years back so you will have to look. I built one a few years ago too so you might look for that one too.
 I cut the pelt apart and built the quiver and strap, some parts lined with leather(thin garmet leather). Patrick built his the way the NAs built theirs(tail first) but it seemed backwarcs to me so I built the one I did with the animal facing forward.
 If you can find them in a search I can probably dig up pics for you.

Thanks Slinger. Thats the one I was talking about.
  One secret to working with "hair on" hides is to do all your cutting from the flesh side(not te hair side) with a sharp razor or razor knife.

if you cut from hair side... even with a razor knife... on rabbit skin(untanned) it won't cut quickly at all.
I think coyote is pretty tough, thick, right?

I've got a bobcat quiver that was cased and it has a leather liner slid inside and stitched around the mouth, I shortened up the strap and made it a back quiver after I got a halfeye plains quiver and bow case

Bub that was one style I had in mind. It seems a good way to protect the inside of the hide and it seems a good way to leave it whole. I have some pondering to do!

Thanks for all the tid bits fellers.

Seriously, if you do have to cut the pelt do it from the inside(flesh side). It makes a neater cut and won't cut as much hair that will make you sneeze.  ;)

Pat I tan and cut all my own silencers. After a few cut from the wrong side you see why! Hair all over and not very "clean" looking when your done. Im quite sure this dude will stay intact.

Thanks Pearly I will check it out.  Did you end up splitting ur hide?  Have you finished yours yet because I would love to check it out?  Seems like you were in same situation.
