i don't want to interrupt what sounds like some great solutions to solve the problems of skinning and cleaning the hogs, I did want to put one thing out there though; If you are planning on having a skinning contest, you may want to think about covering some holes in that. Here's what I mean, you get a bunch of guys together trying to one up each other skinning hogs(especially if this lasts a while) and someone gets over-anxious and silly with a knife. they slice themselves pretty good and have to take a trip to the emergency room. Or worse yet, they get an infection of whatever sort from being cut with a hog bloody knife(rare but it can happen folks). I would hate to see the contest have an incident like that, or even worse be open to some kind of legal action(for putting the skinning contest on, or because it happened on their premises). I guess what I'm saying is if you're going to have guys going a mile a minute skinning hogs, you might want to consider waivers to be signed, safety gloves, and properly sharpened knives at all times(dull knives can cause you to apply more pressure, resulting in a slip of the hand). Like I said, good idea but you better cover the holes in it. just a thought...
ya'll can go back to the building stuff now, heck i feel like i'm learning a little something.
