After almost 10 years of skinning either on the back of the truck or in a mud pit we finally put some effort into setting up a nice skinning station. Its complete with electricity and water and all that's left is to cover it. One of the members is prefabbing the cover in his shop and we're hoping to have it installed before opening bow season.

Awesome set up!!!! The first time you use it you’ll be asking yourself how you survived without it and why it took so long to do it.

Excellent upgrade. Wonder if a couple of those thick rubber mats they sell at Tractor Supply might make it easier on the feet. Utility Rubber Stall Mat

I like that sink setup very much. Well done.

And it looks like y’all made the slab big enough to add a walk-in cooler later.

Very nice setup, might I suggest adding a skinning rack. We’ve always used one and it makes starting the skinning process a heck of a lot easier than hanging the whole time. You can skin the legs completely, half the body, and even split the brisket before hanging to complete cleaning

Also helps for staging on doe weekend when we have a lot of cleaning to do.
