Hi guys, I am not sure if this is the right place to post this request, but here goes. I am looking for a couple of boar skins for a wee project I am doing at the moment. I was wondering if anyone has anything they would like to trade or know of any suppliers or friends who can get hold of a couple for me.
Ideally, I need the skins and not necessarily the heads, I am not going to use them for rugs but intend to cut them up, however, if they come with heads, then that is no problem. I would love to use the hooves (claws?) too, but if there are none attached then again, no probs.
I really am not looking for skins that have been on a dusty floor for years and are full of mites, only freshly tanned ones will do, I am afraid.
I have seen a couple of hides on fleabay, I think they are from Eastern Europe, but I thought I would put the word out here first, just in case anyone has anything they can part with.
thanks!
