Your dad does good work I would think he would be able to sell some of them.  Yeah a little bigger would fit nicely in that opening...

Here's one that I did.



And a pedestal I made out of marble.

What are you guys doing to the antlers?  My bull skull is about ready to get cleaned up and I like the wet look.

My first BT.  Went with the aged barn plank look.  Did it by opening up two eye bolts out of the garage and putting a little angle bend on them.  wastickslinger your dad did an awesome job, I think I'm gonna ask my dad for some father-son carpentry time and learn to make one similar.

My first one I did it myself. It's my archery buck from this year. Going down to Central Oregon desert this winter to look for a pedestal of sorts to mount it on. Hopefully will find a nice Burl or Burnt snag to put it on.

Yes that is how you do it. If you look closely you can see the screw on kanoopers.
