Re: [VFB] Pelt-swaps- new ideas from VFBers
My dubbing isn't on pelts..just in bags, such as SLF and those you can get in any good fly shop. I love that stuff, as well as UV dub. Again, not pelts, bags. Much of my plain dark dubbing fur to hold things together comes from Lion brand wool/acrylic yarn which I cut up and turn to dubbing in a coffee blender. The rest comes from washing, drying and then brushing the beagle with a furminator (great dubbing getting tool).

Re: [VFB] Pelt-swaps- new ideas from VFBers
Now there's an idea, Bob. My wife is trying to get me to sell some mine off! a.. Figure out what you don't need of your own stock and see if a meister will trade out your unwanted dubbings for a portion of the new pelt. b.. Build your dubbing diversity with only SH expense c.. Example: Like Bob, I have plenty of Poo-bear. So I could trade some PB for another exotic fur to try out. d.. I have 'tons' of bulk deer, elk, moose, etc. that I could never use, both natural and dyed. e.. I could send a list of what I want to trade out to the meister if he is wanting a trade-out swap approach. f.. The meister could also request other things he'd like to get in trade for portions of the hide he/she is offering. g.. SO, no matter what situation you are in, you just might find there's a way to get diversified and accomplish another task of unloading some dubbings or furs or whatever for trade. You may have an over-abundance of a hook design that the meister would love to have. So trade for your portion of a brand new dubing.

Re: [VFB] Pelt-swaps- new ideas from VFBers
That would be great if Bob (or anybody on the list) had a few different pelts they wanted to sell, and we could sign up in a swap, then Bob (or whoever) could meister it and probably end up with a much higher overall price for their pelts that had they sold them each to one person.
