d.ungerWood plaque supplier
I am looking for a supplier that makes wood plaques for euro/skull mounts, buffalo to antelope size. I have found a number of companies that make them for deer/antelope size skulls but nothing large enough that would work for a Cape buffalo.
Thanks for your help.

jdollari needed a plaque for my hippo tusks. i went to a local cabinet/woodworking shop and inquired. the owner took me into his storage area and let me pick put the piece of walnut i wanted. he then cut it to my exact specs and put a scalloped edge around it. he also mounted a special type of hanger on the back( 2 long pieces of interlocking aluminum designed for heavy loads, as the finished item with tusks was going to weigh about 50lbs).it is very large( about 4'x2'x 1") and the whole thing cost under $100.i mounted the tusks myself. just a thought....
