How to make a European skull mount
NavyDave:
I bought a Buck Boiler and it worked GREAT.........twice.....no worky no more. goin back to the hot plate.
andy thomas:
another way of attaching the skulls to the plaques is get your self a three inch bolt and nut . mix up some bono and place it in the brain cavity then stick the head of your bolt into the cavity, you need to hold it for awhile while it sets up. then run the threaded part through plaque and add nut.
Gus:
Thank You outlaw,
For this thread and the information in it.
I've got some bones soakin' in Hot water and dish soap even as you read this. ;D
As far as mounting skull to plaque, I've had decent luck using a piece of Oak dowel, one end epoxied into the hole in the back of the skull and the other
epoxied into a hole drilled in the plaque.
