Hi guys,
I would like to ask you, what you usually do with the tusks.Does your taxidermist fill in with a resin or any other material?. The edges on the opposite to the top of my tusks are a little
fragmental.Thanks a lot.

Mine are mounted in wooden bases built by Life Form Taxidermy. The tusks slip down into a metal frame/base first and then attach to the wooden base. Big Grin

Petr,

To fill ivory use foam break andfill leave open around 4 inches take to an auto body shop get some white poster board wrap with around a 2 inch excess and fill with auto body bondo with fiberglass haris for strength.

Mine are capped with a zebra skin booty.

Thanks Scott... It's truly a TEAM effort all the way down to the young man that sweeps the floor. Heck, he may be the next Master Taxidermist hanging around this inviroment Big Grin
