Hey there! Not a first time tanner but first time with a cowhide. I wanted to level up.

Used a pressure washer for the fleshing, long but worth it! Found proportions for a pickle on a few trapper websites and now we are here.

What's a good next step if you dont have chemicals in your budget? I read that using egg yolks can help set the leather, just planning on using this for a rug. Realistic expectations have been employed as this is a first attempt at a cowhide.
