That's cool, how did you attach the euros to the elk shed

I put regular two screw hangers on the skulls themselves, then put screws in the elk shed, and hung them like a picture... I had to use a little apoxie sculpt to keep the skulls straight (they wanted to swing)...

They say that "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."  If that's true then hopefully you won't mind if I try something similar, that really looks great with the elk shed.

Looks good I heard the fake ones don't break as bad as the real ones when they fall off the wall..   :bash:  Good thing my taxidermist does lifetime warranty for stupidity for me...  Just the turnaround is lacking...  Haha

They are both reproduction skulls out of Van Dykes... They make shed skulls or skull plat cut out skulls... very strong! except from 30 ft to concrete...
