Can anyone make a recomendation for a beetle taxidermist? I'd like only the best museum quality finished product. First hand experience only please. Thanks.

I skip the taxidermist. I have had numerous skulls cleaned by Skulls Unlimited http://www.skullsunlimited.com/main_r.htm They are in oklahoma city. They do unbelievable work. Prices are very resonable. They also do full skeleton articulations as well. They do museum quality work and do work for many museum and universities. Just send them your item frozen about three or months later you get it back. I have had everything from wild turkey to whitetails and bison done. I have yet to be disappointed

Thanks, that's just what I'm looking for.

Dirty Jobs with Mike Roe did a show on them. You can probably find it at your local Borders Books or some other big DVD/book store.

Might help you decide a little more. They are really nice guys as well.
