Flesh the Hide
Drape over smooth log, flesh side up. Scrape off ALL fat, meat, membrane with dull blade or bone tool. Every bit must go or brain can't penetrate.

Brain & Stretch
Brain & Stretch
Mash one brain (or 3 egg yolks) in warm water. Soak hide overnight. Wring on a stick, then stretch continuously as it dries — 2-4 hours of constant work. If any spot dries un-stretched, it goes stiff.

Smoke
Smoke
Sew into a bag shape, suspend over smudge fire (rotten wood). Smoke 1-2 hours until golden-tan throughout. This makes it washable — unsmoked brain tan reverts to rawhide when wet.
