There is another item on this page about the mechanical pelt puller, shown in this photograph. It removes the skin from a lamb or sheep by a metal ring being forced down between the skin or pelt and the carcase. The ultimate machine may be a four-headed affair with four of these rings removing the skins from about eight sheep in a minute.
