    Orange Fur? Interesting technique but all the brads seems like it would damage the hide.

    Dyed? Micro pin nailer? I've never seen someone feather a nailer like that; looks like he's inserting a pin every half inch.

    The fur stretchers I have known all looked something like an ironing board over which the inverted (flesh out) hide is placed whole. The skinning technique is called "case" where an incision is made around the anus and the hide is pulled off as if taking off long underwear.
