That's the way I've always done it (head-first, that is) and I haven't broken my neck yet! 
Enjoy the ride.

Thanks for the feed back. The funny thing is it really not expensive at all except for all the beer it will take to get thru it. I bought two extra large. muskrat pelt on ebay for $12 with shipping. $2 for the antler. and I think $7 for enough sheep hide to make bog shoes and sporran to match. I already have an old butch knife blade that I am going to reshape and polish. I will have to pick up an awl. and some leather needles. Oh do have a question. Probaly for Turpin. Do you use eyes in your sporrans? if so what size? 5mm?
