308SakoLas Vegas members?
Who do you have locally to do Taxidermy work (starting with cleaning and repairs?)And professional help hanging some large pieces when moving into town. Took the below and some others off the wall today for crating this coming weeek.
Thanks in advance.

Use Enough GunBwanna can give you some advice on this one. The woman who took over Hagen Thompson Taxidermy here in Las Vegas would be the one to contact. The name slips me right now. I personally do my own cleaning, hanging and minor repairs.

keithv35If you need help from an average joe when you get here let me know. I can help hold it up while you pound in a nail!

BwannaI can vouch for Chris. She's busy because she's very good. I have her do all my north american stuff, and will probably start dipping and packing my african trophies and having them sent to her. Brad gave you her e-mail address, but her phone number is 702.873.1094. PM me if you have specific questions.

308SakoChris responded to my email in that she would be too busy to help, doesn't provide those services, and could not recomend anyone.
The search obviousily continues.

BwannaI'm sure there are a bunch of us in town who would assist. I know I would enjoy it. Also, I could put you in touch with the handiman that does work at my office if you wanted to be sure that all of the necessary hangers get where they need to be. PM me if you'd like some assistance and I'd be glad to help.

308SakoBwana, Thank you, and I may well get in touch if my painters, tilemen, and granite people cannot give a hand. The crating begins tomorrow, and there are only 5 days till the big white truck, so pressed to complete all facets of preparation. I would love to hold a open house for fellow "local" AR participants, but not as a work party! Just a plain party would suit me well about now. I should stress that Chris was quick and concise, I appreciated the response.
The location for said party, and my 2 Buffalo skulls which will lie under the Palms.

Use Enough GunWhich part of the Las Vegas Valley are you relocating to? Bwanna and I live in the Northwest section of the valley near the Mount Charleston/Kyle Canyon turnoff. PM us if you need our assistance.

Use Enough GunGood location. Bwanna and I are close as we are located off of Durango/Brent and Farm Road/Buffalo, respectively. As a joke I was going to ask you which of the hotels you were planning on moving into since many people think that we all live in them here in Vegas.

308SakoStay in a Hotel in Vegas... LOL now that is funny. Spend the last day and a half crating the collection, and wished at times I had been a poorer shot! Then again, and more frequently it was quite a pleasure to be up close and personal once again with the many memories. I do look forward to meeting some fellow AR participants, at leisure.
Thanks
