Well, you do drive a big rig, lots of opportunity for bones.
Hmm ,,elk bone scales, and a couple strops from that road kill you passed by. Some shoulder length gloves, and a military grade gas mask....your in there.! :rofl2:

Your wife is probably right about the smell.
I have boiled deer heads to make European mounts and I tried Pennekjott one time and my wife walked in and her first comment is who is boiling deer heads!

All you need is to find an anthill. Stick it in there and watch.
These fire-ants we have down here make quick work.
What was the flavour?Quote:

Maybe pen blanks too..

I found a deer skeleton last weekend and wondered similar things about the rib bones.
Pet stores sell clean processed marrow bones. They are often about 10-12 inches long and the marrow has been totally removed. The ones I buy for my dogs usually have one side that is practically flat and is about 1/4” thick and 2” wide. They cost about $5 each.
Seems like they might be good for scales and they have the advantage of being completely cleaned of blood, marrow and gristle.
I was told that adding pinto beans to the boiling water will help with the smell. The wife of the guy telling me said to use rice. Seems like rice would be better for the color.
Thats who I use, great service never had any issues that seller, Ive ordered from him many times.Quote:
