Title: Little wall art for a little buck
Post by: Irish_hunter93 on February 04, 2015, 11:42:25 AM: So I royally screwed up with the fact that I over boiled my 2 point blacktail skull. So I decided to do a skullcap. It's not the best in the world but I like it!

Post by: stigalla on February 09, 2015, 02:22:40 PM: I like this idea so much, the only thing im trying to figure out is what kind of wood to use. I just cut down a plum tree which is super cool because its purple and yellow swirls. but I have rounds of maple, oak and some red cedar too. Any recommendations? looks like you used an epoxy to bond the two? im also debating on using an epoxy or maybe running a screw from the rear of the wood into the base of the skull...
