Re: dried hide removal

soak the hide in a bucket of water till the hide gets soft enough to peel off with some pliers and a knife.

Just soak it in clean water and change the water every so often. After a few days it should have re-hydrated and you should be able to skin out. Just keep soaking. Also it wont hurt to add some salt to your water. Salt kills bacteria.
