Got my buck back
« on: November 23, 2015, 07:30:04 PM »
Special thanks to Bugs n Bones Mike for doing a great euro mount for us. Only took a month to get him back and my daughter is excited to get him hung up on the wall in her room.
Thanks Mike!!

I usually do my own euros but holy smokes the quality is apparent on having it done by a pro.  Looks sweet.

That is as mounted as it will get.
I like euro mounts. I've got a couple of them now.

I like them too, just wondering if it was going on the wall in some manner, or just a coffee table decoration?
Or in your case a Chair cushion decoration  :chuckle:

It's sitting on top of our hutch in the dining room currently. I'm getting a wall mount for it from another member. Just hasn't arrived yet.
I think my kid wants it in her room, but it might stay in the living room. TBD.

Thanks.
North Bend. Worth the trip.

Turnaround time was one of the best parts. He told me it'd be done in a month. I picked it up a few days after it was ready, exactly 1 month to the day from the day I dropped it off.

It's looking that way. Waiting for the wall mount and we'll go from there. The Mrs. expressed a liking to it in the living room so we'll see.
