I finally got some finished pictures taken of this pedestal mount I did. It is tougher to get good pictures when its so dang sunny out, I had to get up at 5:30 this morning to take the pics. Anyway, this is one of my most favorite mounts I have done to date . I hope to get more people wanting stuff like this done as it is something that is fun to do and is different from the everyday semi sneak shoulder mount that everyone gets   Anyway, enjoy the pictures.

Charlie, this mount is absolutely perfect. 

I took these pictures to the taxi I used but we couldn't find a pedestal mount in a similar pose large enough for the cape I had.  I think we found one that is close but there will still be some adjustments because 7 7/8 and 23' was the largest one we could find. 

I hope it turns out like yours.

Very nice work Charlie.  I think my next mount is just gonna have to be a pedestal.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

What a great looking mount. Nice work.

Cant wait to see how it turns out!

Im going to do a pedestal like this one on a big mulie for display but I will have to modify a tru-fit wall pedestal form to get there. Thats about the closest thing I can find to modify.

  Thanks for the compliments guys!
