I put regular two screw hangers on the skulls themselves, then put screws in the elk shed, and hung them like a picture... I had to use a little apoxie sculpt to keep the skulls straight (they wanted to swing)...

that looks really nice.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

They say that "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."  If that's true then hopefully you won't mind if I try something similar, that really looks great with the elk shed.
Disappointments are inevitable, misery is optional.

Looks good I heard the fake ones don't break as bad as the real ones when they fall off the wall..   :bash:  Good thing my taxidermist does lifetime warranty for stupidity for me...  Just the turnaround is lacking...  Haha
