Deer/hog skinning rack?

[bar2hunter]

Does anybody have how-to-build specs, pics, etc. of sawhorse looking racks. Not looking to build hanging skinner, like winch up types.

Anybody?

Just a pic of what I saw at a hunting show last month

Cool! Thanks for sharing!!
I'm thinking that if I put some extensions up, on the ars end, that would give me handles to push/pull it around and somewhere to bound the legs if they needed so. Plus, I believe I'd go with pneumatic tires, instead of casters. The big tires would/should work better in grass/dirt/gravel.

Here are a few from a previous post when I was thinking about building 1. I still want to, but never have.

If I was designing 1 from scratch it would be almost exactly like the first picture bar2 posted. I like the wheels to make it portable. I'm thinking the height where the animal would be placed should be about the same height as a regular tailgate (~3'?). I'm also thinking it should be 5-6' long. I would also add 4 vertical bars (~6") at each corner to tie legs open like the 3rd picture in my previous post. I would probably use rope, zip tie or chain instead of actually putting the bar thru the leg. I would also add a 6"x6" plate at each corner for setting a beer or knife on. I've wanted to have 1 of these built for a long time and thought quite a bit about features. Anybody have any other essential features for gutting/skinning a deer?

Could add wheels/tires and weld/bolt arms and plates to it. What I like is it adjustable!

Bar2 would that hold the weight of a large pig? Just a thought, as I don't know the weight limit of the saw horse. I would guess that it would.
