So you want a european mount of a beetle?  Maybe a rhinocerous beetle?  I would like to see the finished result. :chuckle:

Contact Michelle Nelson. She doesn't have the beetles herself, but she has someone that does the beetle cleaning for her. She did a European mount for me with the buck I got last year and it turned out great. Had it back within 6 months.

Okay, well that's just the only option I know of within two hours of Port Angeles. But I'm sure there must be some others, just none that I personally know of.

What about "Bugs n Bones" in North Bend? maybe just a bit over 2 hours but they are a site sponsor and have posted up some pics of their work that looks great.
