Stellar put up! It really is nice to have someone willing to display the proper technique of putting up fur. Thank you for the content! I've found that with feet on furs, if you stuff the feet with paper towels or newspaper it will prevent the feet from drying too flat and getting really hard.

Can you explain or demonstrate what a “tumbler” is?

A tumbler is a barrel(plastic or wood) connected with pulleys and a motor that turns at slow rotations. It has a door on it and you put sawdust or corncob grit. You then put in a couple furs after you have flushed them and you tumble them for 15 to 20 minutes. The purpose is to pull most of moisture out of the skin and it also fluffs up the fur. Then you just pull out of the Tumblr and put it on a stretcher and brush and fluff it up to make it look good.

What corncob grit do you use? Is it similar to sawdust or is it more of a pellet shape like smoker wood pellets?

@kylestang3221 I use Grit-O Cob from Home Depot. It’s medium grit so a little bit closer to sawdust, but definitely not pellets.

Do you have a video on how to remove the lower jaw on cats easier? I find it fairly hard. Thanks
