Is that the buck you were asking about the epoxy sculpt about?

It is one of them yes. Like I said. ..I think my measuring technique is way off. I added the (3) widths too. Is that normal?

No, you only count the inside spread between the main beams.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

No need to remeasure, just subtract the other two width scores you added in. ;)

Speaking of epoxy sculpt....does anyone know were I can get antler molds? I seen a picture of one. So you can match textures of the mold to the horns. Whats a good paint to use? What kind of sealant for the actual bone? Just a clear enamel?

153" GREAT call folks! Im really happy my error was caught. A 153" (assumed) matched set non-typical whitetail sheds is AWESOME to me! I really want to recondition them and mount them to a metal skull. Just need a few more tips on "how-to" from the good folks at HW and I can get'er fixed and mounted!
