Well here is my attempt at mounting a euro on a shedder. I didn't mount my skull straight up and down. Instead the skull follows the contour of the main beam. I meant to do that (this means I accidentally drilled the hole a little crooked) :chuckle: :chuckle:. It being crooked and all I figured it would look better in a corner. Anyways... it didn't turn out as good as Wastickslinger's, but I'm happy with it and it was good practice. Thanks for the idea Wastickslinger! 

Looks good!

I had to lay the skull on a lot of sheds before I found the one with the right shape. Mine follows the contour which makes it a slight turn as well. I think that is the only way to make it solid. It looks like it was turned a little on purpose.

Thank you. I really like the look of a euro mounted on a shedder. Thanks for the idea.
