Joe, Beefed up one of my stands for the big guy, welded two 36" removable legs on the front of the stand and a 12" flat bar on the backside (for two ready mix cement bags) so far holding him pretty solid.  Going to build an entirely new stand this winter for the big boys, something a little easier to work with.

Duane I will get some pictures sent over to you of the ones I had built. Charlie and Michelle have both used them. I have been using them quite a bit. I like them but there is always room for improvement on them.

Mounted the big dude on Thursday, some shots of the process.  His hide is layed out on a 4'x8' sheet of OSB, after stretching he hung over the ends by more then a foot!  Enjoy photos. :)

I will have some finished photos in a few weeks, stay tuned!  Duane
