Temp is upper 80s low 90s. humidity 50s. We have been getting lots of rain on the weekends.
Does it hurt to be in the sun ?

TB takes longer to cure out, believe it or not. When TB get "buried" it takes forever to fully cure out. Id give it a month in those conditions, maybe 6 weeks if it dents easily under your thumb nail.

Ok , thank you.  Another question if you do not mind. On back sinew I know you use a scratcher but I have pounded and broke it down.
How fine do you go ? When I get mine tore down I scrape it with the edge of a knife against a smooth stone.

I actually use a hair comb to get it separated farther. Im a believer in well laid, finely made sinew works best in a matrix. Just a belief of mine that I cant prove with numbers.
