Here is an ELk European that just left the shop.  Kids first Elk.  That is a walnut panel that I ordered.  When it came in it was multi colored.

This is the first time I have ordered a panel out of the catolog that has come in looking like that.  I ordered it for another guy and I sent him a pic and he didn't like it.  Which is no problem because that is why I sent him a picture.

The dad came in to look at the panels I had and choose a type of wood for his sons Elk and when he saw this one he wanted it.  I thought it looked cool.  I wasn't going to just put it on someones elk because the colors are so different.  Glad he chose this one.

Great work Michelle...Can't wait to see my dad's  :IBCOOL:

And thanks for allowing me to pass on this panel as well.  To me, it kinda threw it off a bit.  But we all have a different eye for presentation, and I am glad this dad and his son will enjoy it.

Nope no screws in the teeth.  Yes, I screw it right into the skull.  Reinforce the area with an epoxy inside the brain cavity.
