I like the cut on that coon, looks different than mine. Where'd you square it up from?

I just cut from heal to heal and then make 2 cuts from that line to base of tail. This removes the butthole and balls. I used the large nafa dimensions for stretcher. I just followed the directions the best I could off the nafa manual

Maybe it was the stretcher that made the difference, since that's how I do it, but it looks different. Thought you had come up with a new "money cut" I needed to learn :lol: Did you use an 8 or 8 1/2? I'm trying to decide what size to make my wood stretchers this summer, and yours looks pretty good.

I used the western pattern on nafas sight. It is 8 at the base

I also pleated it. I bunched the fur to the base of the tail. I would take a pic but already turned it in.
