if anybody wants to scald a hog ....get you  a tank of any kind an old bath tub works good for 200 pounders or smaller ....... wash your hog off after the kill ......get  you a tin bucket from tractor supply to handle the boiling water ...... bring you some water to boil bout 30 gallons ....... dip boiling water put about 15 gallons in tub or water ever  you use ....... take cold water hose and  cool the water back down with cold water til it hits about 150 degrees using a thermomiter any kind....when you get water right  ease hog in and roll hog on its side ...you want enuff water for the hog to be covered with water ....have a shovel handy ease the hog up and down alittle so he want settle against bottom ....probably soak for about a minute then the hair should start to slip on ears and head ...be sure and push feet down in tub too ....roll hog over  one time and check the other side .......as soon as snout and knuckles slip take him out and scrap .....any problem area you may have put a sack old sheet or cloth over it and pour alittle boil water on it  should turn loose....... I  like  a scraped hog ......
