FishcarverAfrican Continent Skull Plaque
Now that i have my animals back from Africa I want to get them up on the wall. I want to put some horn euro mounts on a African Continent shaped plaque. I cannot find one anywhere. The wildlife gallery does them for their customers but does not sale them separately.
Does anybody know where I can look at purchasing these plaques? I guess if it comes down to it I can build my own. Any help would be appreciated greatly.

BNagelSize will vary with animal involved. If you have woodworking skills, I'd opt to shape my own.

sevenmagltd.I have a vendor that makes panels for me out of walnut and does a fabulous job. I will contact him to see if he can make some. I will trace out a pattern and send to him, feel sure he can do it. What kind of skulls do you want to mount so I can size accordingly? Sounds like a good idea, I'll have some made up for myself as well!

That would be great if you could check into that. I'm going to mount an Impala, Blesbuck and Kudu skulls. The two smaller are 16x8 and the Kudu is 18X8. Ill double check on the measurements
The wildlife gallery has some excellent examples

bisonhunter1Check out Walnut Creek Hardwoods, they have some Africa shaped plaques in two sizes. Just Google them and explore their website.

katiesgunsI had my taxidermist do one from plywood and wrapped it with the back skin of my buffalo and did skull mt. It looks great.
