A wool comb is an additional tool great for the sheepskin rug we are making. You can sub for a dog brush or other comb if you’ve got one.
Dry Scrapers
Lastly, a dry-scraper - any round + sharp scraper is a dry scraper
We have lots to choose from, because how a tool feels in your hands is paramount. And because, having two or three dry-scrapers to switch between is going to level up your hide work.
Choose one for now, or grab a couple if you’ve got the budget. Tools are an investment and you can take your time with them. Click any photo to be taken to the tool.
