Synopsis "Practical Tanning: A Handbook of Modern Processes, Receipts, and Suggestions for the Treatment of Hides, Skins, and Pelts of Every Descri"
This vintage book contains a complete handbook on tanning, with information on treating hides, skins and pelts of every variety. With step-by-step instructions and a wealth of useful, timeless information, this volume is highly recommended for modern readers with a practical interest in tanning and leather work. Contents include: "Soaking Green-Salted Sheepskins; Soaking Dry Sheepskins", "Removing the Wool; Formulas for Depilatories", "Applying the Depilatory Paint; Liming after Removal of the Wool", "Methods of Deliming (drenching) with Bran; Formulas for Sheepskins", "Deliming Glove Leather and Glazed Leather; Pickling with Acid and Salt", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction.
