Not sure if you are asking about the machine or technique...typical bench grinder, take off one roter, install a steel wire brush in it's place. Start with the nose of the coyote facing you, the brush will be pushing the flesh down and away from you. You have to be careful not to hold the hide in one place too long, or press too hard, as you can go through the hide.

If you want to see this done on a real fast scale, there is a Hutterite buyer near Brooks (guys have mentioned it somewhere else on this site, don't think it would be difficult to track it down) who employs several young guys to skin, flesh and stretch coyotes. If you ever have a chance to go there, watch how their setup is. They have a large, wide rotating wire brush with water trickling down onto it. They flesh coyotes extremely fast.

However, I really want to try the water pressure method you speak of when I get a chance.
