Very nice! And those lamps look great too! I have a guy I just did a cow elk shoulder mount for that saved the legs. He wanted to know what we could do with them. I told him to keep them in the freezer until I get caught up and we would figure something out, but im never caught up 🙂 . He was thinking lamps, If you want, pm me a price if you want a little side job and ill run it by him when I talk to him.

If you had just shown a pic and asked what we thought you had done, I NEVER would of guessed it was a rebuild. You did an awesome job Rhonda. Definitely something to be proud of.

Rhonda, First off, an outstandind Job on the rebuild, when finished I rub with dirt instead of steel wool, alittle gets stuck in the stain and makes for a very realistic look, as well as toneing down the brightness….DC
