Brain Tanning a Hide — Primitive Leather from Scratch

Multi-day process with distinct phases. Each must be completed fully before moving to the next.

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.

Soak in wood ash lye 2-4 days, stir daily. When hair pulls out easily, scrape off all hair plus the grain layer beneath.

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

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.
