We boil 55 gal. drum of water.
Using small sauce pans, dip out and pour over a small area while another scrapes with knife. 
Just a good constant trickle and work on 1 ft. Or smaller spots at a time.
Once done, hang hog, scrub hide down with dawn soap and rinse well with warm water.
Then skin, rinse inside.
If you get the soap rinsed off good, that hide makes the best cracklins ever.
